It was recently announced that President Donald Trump will start paying his own legal bills. It’s about time. How can a self proclaimed billionaire use money donated from hard working Americans to pay for his legal troubles, which are all due to his own bad decisions? Does anyone else see how disgusting and unacceptable this should be to everyone? Why in the world are people still supporting is guy?
So, Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle is going to lay off nearlyi 400 county employees now that the ridiculous pop tax failed. If they don’t need these 400 people what are they doing working there in the first place?
If the liberal left didn’t have a double standard they wouldn’t have any standards at all.
The well off people already pay the most in taxes and in most cases, worked hard to get to where they are. They more often are givers to charity and often help without asking for recognition. Without this freedom to excel, the country would never be as great as it is and the most sought after country to live. The goals of all should be to raise yourself up to be the most you can be and not have to depend on others for your well being. It’s too bad the well off are marginalized by the left as the ones to be scorned, when in fact they should be role models.
