Scott Kipreotis: Democratic policies have done way more harm than good

To The Daily Sun,

I am not a staunch Republican, even voting Democrat several times in my life. If this group of Democrats weren't such blatant hypocrites I might muster up a chuckle. They complain about affordability, high gas and oil prices and high costs. Their president of the United States killed the Keystone XL Pipeline on his first day in office and then gave us high inflation. Living on a fixed income and struggling, I remember paying $8 for a dozen eggs. I worry about my future healthcare costs. I have a Medicare Advantage Plan but cannot afford the Supplemental Insurance to cover the remaining 20%. Legislators leave that out when they say they want Medicare for all. I have to get financial help if a serious procedure is required. Obamacare and all the Democrat policies have actually made life harder for me. But not for the ones who never worked, or single mothers with kids or illegal immigrants or many others abusing their benefits. I would argue that their policies have harmed the majority of the vulnerable people like the elderly, disabled and children. I hear many Democrats I know personally complaining about costs but they are still going out to eat, spending and going on expensive vacations or to their Florida home for the winter. Baby Boomers own over 65% of the wealth in this country and I am willing to bet the vast majority are Democrats. Fraud is rampant in the programs intended for that group of vulnerable people I mentioned earlier. I could go on but I am running out of space.
