LETTER: Joe Biden and student loan handouts

I wholeheartedly agree with Joyce Belveals’s recent letter to the editor regarding President Joe Biden’s forgiveness of student loans. Because I made the mistake of paying off my college loans, I am wondering if President Biden is planning on a free money giveaway for people like me. I recently purchased a new car, and I really don’t want to pay back the loan. I am hoping that with a stroke of the pen the president can make my debt vanish.

Actually, why doesn’t President Biden take it a step further? Why not give every American citizen (you could also include illegal immigrants) $1 million? Sure, a loaf of bread would cost $350, but being a millionaire should take away at least a little bit of the pain.

Sarcasm aside, I am so sick of politicians doing only what’s best for themselves to pander for votes, rather than doing what is right for the country.

LETTER: Sonia Sotomayor, retirement and race

Using race to justify or condemn the action of others is simply wrong and, some would say, the definition of racism. We are all one people.
