Letter: Democrats have failed us

Posted October 10, 2022 1:00 am

Elections have consequences. Since Joe Biden has become President and Democrats took control of the U.S. House and Senate on Jan. 20, 2021:

• Inflation has grown from 1.4% to 8.5%;

• Gas has risen from $2.55/gallon to $4.25/gallon (Mount Prospect, IL);

• The stock market has fallen from 3,799 to 3,783;

• 4.2 million illegal immigrants have come into our country undeterred;

• Our national debt has increased 3.3 Trillion; and

• Murders and drug overdose deaths are near all-time highs.

President Biden and Democrats in the U.S. House and Senate, as well as JB Pritzker and Democrats in the Illinois House and Senate have failed us. On Nov 8, Vote Republican or Vote Libertarian or Vote Green Party, heck write in Bozo the Clown if you prefer. The only way you can change Democrats' horrible governance is by voting them out of office.
