Remember problem politicians at polls

We have heard our politicians all say that things will get better. Who caused this economy we have today? It's people like Mike Madigan, Richard Daley, Todd Stroger and family, John Cullerton, and the ward bosses and committee people who brought this all about for greed.

They're the ones, including former Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who caused it. The voters keep voting the same people in all the time.

Then we can't leave out President Obama with his stimulus program for Wall Street instead of putting it into small business and industries in our country.

When a person works they can afford their own insurance. They can also buy their food and everything to take care of their families. We have politicians that have two or three homes sponsored by the taxpayers of Illinois. Graft in many ways.

The politicians have put in their people into the Illinois health services, where you hardly can reach a caseworker.

This is just one reason Illinois is going down because of people who don't care - certainly not for the veterans and seniors. You'll find many of your politicians never served their country in any war. That's why they don't know what the veterans need.

What they have is the amount you can make, and any more than that, you cannot receive benefits of the Veterans Affairs or any other organization in Illinois.

It's about time they raised the standard because of the economy we're in. Let's see if this letter will get the ball rolling. Remember election is coming up and it's up to you to make the change.
