Conservatives only care about wealth

I regularly read editorials in the TR, such as Tim Ebersole’s letter to the editor on June 12 that hysterically claim that the sky is falling in. He, and folks like him, ignore the harm done to our democracy by the previous administration culminating in the insurrection of Jan. 6.

Trump’s antics dwarf the Teapot Dome scandals of a century ago. Trump and his entourage are the ones that lined their pockets at taxpayer expense, not Democrats.

Those conservatives cry “socialism” at any policy that will help average citizens improve their lives. Health care, education, child care are among those opposed by conservatives. However conservatives welcome socialism when it comes to agricultural subsidies, military, etc. And conservatives give lip service to many of our governmental programs but then they deny adequate funding for those.

Conservatives are scared-to-death of Nancy Pelosi because she is one of the most caring and probably the smartest and most savvy politicians in our country. And it is also true that the liberals are intellectually far above conservatives. Liberals care about people. Conservatives care only about themselves and their wealth.
