Sarah Sanders

Sarah Sanders and her decision to step down as press secretary is her own decision and the liberal press should shut up and crawl in their hole and pull the dirt over them.  This administration has been dogged by the liberal press since the beginning and it is disgusting.
The liberal press seems to feel they have the right to conduct their own campaign to influence the public and force the public to vote the liberal way.  This is America and the press should publish the truth and nothing more!
The American public, I hope, has some form of intelligence to see through the press and make a decision based on the facts and not a slanted opinion.
I hope Sarah Sanders has a chance to obtain a position that pays her a great income and a chance to express her views and I hope the next press secretary shows the same spirit.

Laguna Beach police cars & American Flag

I noticed an article today about some people complaining about the new paint job on police cars in Laguna Beach, CA. The paint job includes the "American Flag". The individuals doing this complaining should pack up and leave or find some American spirit. This is America, if you don't like America then why are you in America. Notice to the Laguna Beach government, leave the paint as is or maybe even make it bigger!

Gillette (Procter & Gamble) "We Believe"

This is a big note to Gillette (Procter & Gamble) regarding the "We Believe" ad. I will not buy your products and call on all men to boycott your products. This is a ridiculous attack on all men and is disgusting! All men are not bad, not even a majority are bad. The #MeToo movement was totally out of control. Stop the attacks on men!

Alexa and your questions/commands.

Do you ever think about the questions or commands you use with Alexa or where that information goes or what happens to it? I recently thought about that when considering a purchase. I was surprised in a way what I learned. Of course you don't expect privacy today on the internet, but seems like you should have some privacy in this area. I found when you ask a question of Alexa or give a command it goes to the iCloud Amazon account and the answer or response goes back to you. The recording of the question or command stays at that location (in your file with your personal information) with all the other times you have asked a question of Alexa or given a command. You supposedly have the ability to access your account and delete that information, but of course it is already there and been used for marketing purposes by who knows who. Just a bit of information to consider regarding Alexa, Cortana, Google, or other assistants out there in iCloud land. Think about that next time you ask those questions or give instructions.

Protest

Recent protests in different methods are really individuals trying in their own way to express their opinion, but in my opinion the protesters need to step back and analyze their true purpose. I feel they have lost their way as to the meaning of what they want to accomplish. This should not be white against black because America is much more that that! There is more than color - wake up! There are certain protesters who just want to create a disturbance and that is what is causing the problem in America. Do not disrespect America just to protest!

Insurance, Drug, and Healthcare Cost.

The cost of insurance, prescription drugs and healthcare has reached a critical point for most Americans. There seems to be a never-ending increase in the pricing of all three. Senior citizens have to deal with the normal confusing Medicare coverage options and enrollment packages in an attempt to obtain what they hope will be a decent plan. Once a year they are bombarded with new plan information as the new enrollment period arrives. They receive notification that insurance monthly premiums are increasing. This amounts to billions of dollars for the insurance companies, drug companies, and healthcare providers along with increased costs for all citizens. This places a severe strain on the senior citizens who already struggle to meet their monthly budget, sometimes sacrificing food to buy the necessary prescription drugs. The costs of a visit to a doctor or dentist are outrageous and pray that you don’t have to visit a hospital. If you don’t have insurance, you don’t receive that insurance discount, when actually that is the time you need that discount. Healthcare cost in America is out of control! America is a very wealthy country and the government should take the necessary steps to assure that every citizen has affordable healthcare coverage. Every citizen should have nothing less than the coverage afforded to the members of Congress and federal employees, which is of course paid for by the citizens. This is an area where governmental action to some extent is necessary in order to provide the necessary and financially affordable coverage that every citizen deserves. Congress (all members) should deliver a well-defined plan and take the necessary steps to execute the plan in order to provide this service to the American people. Write your member of Congress and demand action on your behalf!

American Political Change Desired

The time has come, and some say passed, for the American public to demand change in Congress with how government operates. It is true all members of American society will not agree on most issues and this is reflected in the many close elections. The big problem would seem to be the elected officials and their inability to produce programs that satisfy everyone by utilizing the ability to compromise. These self-serving politicians really need to show some form of intelligence and produce programs, such as healthcare and insurance oversight, which satisfy the majority and don’t lean to extremes on either side. Try taking lobbyists and money out of the equation! Is this possible? The healthcare industry, the drug industry, and politicians are all out of control. The American public should clean out Congress and start over with a new mandate that actually has the interest and protection of the public as a primary objective. Congress, state government, and local government fail when it comes to actually representing the average citizen. Government salaries and pensions seem to be their main concern. Wake up America, register to vote if you are not registered and vote for someone to make changes.
