WALT SPECHT: The real issues are being ignored

These politicians seem to think the voters are even dumber than ever before. Hillary keeps getting caught in lies, and expects us to believe even more lies. Plus, we would be dumb enough to elect her.

Those that think by jumping on Trump for statements that many citizens believe to be partially true may get a real surprise they definitely don’t expect. The companies and organizations distancing themselves from Trump have individuals with worse perspectives than Trump has on their payrolls.

It is elitist pressure and we are supposed to be dumb enough to believe it is genuine concern.

That darn flag is in the forefront again, seemingly more important that improving the lot of the average minority. Someone please tell me of an improvement in the economics and safety of the black community by removing that flag from anywhere? Why do you think the real circumstances are never addressed?

The fact that the prisons are packed due to a failure of the family structure necessary to provide the necessary guidance and education to actually improve the lot of people. Then there is the lack of decent-paying jobs. Why isn’t that addressed?

I believe Trump has commented on taking our jobs back from overseas. The work ethic of our younger work force also needs to be adjusted. I have gotten to the point that when hiring, I look at attendance far more than I used to. Companies are putting in place much stricter attendance rules because of this lack of ethics among workers.

When will all these folks spend time on real problems, not politically correct initiatives?
