Dear Republicans: We Tried Your Way and It Does Not Work

[Pete F.]

"A day in the Life of Sue in CT.

Sue gets up at 6 a.m. and fills her coffeepot with water to prepare her morning coffee. The water is clean and good because some tree-hugging liberal fought for minimum water-quality standards.
With her first swallow of coffee, she takes her daily medication. Her medications are safe to take because some stupid commie liberal fought to insure their safety and that they work as advertised.
All but $10 of her medications are paid for by her employer's medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance - now Sue gets it too.
She prepares her morning breakfast, bacon and eggs. Sue's bacon is safe to eat because some girly-man liberal fought for laws to regulate the meat packing industry.
In the shower, Sue reaches for her shampoo. Her bottle is properly labeled with each ingredient and its amount in the total contents because some crybaby liberal fought for her right to know what she was putting on her body and how much it contained.
Sue dresses, walks outside and takes a deep breath. The air she breathes is clean because some environmentalist wacko liberal fought for laws to stop industries from polluting our air.
She walks to the subway station for her government-subsidized ride to work. It saves her considerable money in parking and transportation fees because some fancy-pants liberal fought for affordable public transportation.
Sue begins her work day. She has a good job with excellent pay, medical benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some lazy liberal union members fought and died for these working standards. Sue's employer pays these standards.
If Sue is hurt on the job or becomes unemployed, she'll get a worker compensation or unemployment check because some stupid liberal didn't think she should lose her home because of her temporary misfortune.
Sue is home from work. She plans to visit her father this evening at his farm home in the country. She gets in her car for the drive. Her car is among the safest in the world because some America-hating liberal fought for car safety standards.
She is happy to see her father, who is now retired. Her father lives on Social Security and a union pension because some wine-drinking, cheese-eating liberal made sure he could take care of himself so Sue wouldn't have to.
Sue gets back in her car for the ride home, and turns on a radio talk show. The radio host keeps saying that liberals are bad and conservatives are good. He doesn't mention that Republicans have fought against every protection and benefit Sue enjoys throughout her day.
Sue agrees: "We don't need those big-government liberals ruining our lives! After all, I'm self-made and believe everyone should take care of themselves, just like I have."
When Sue goes to vote this fall to remove those "socialist antifa wokesters" from office, she'll only be allowed to vote at all because woke liberals fought a long battle to gain her the right to vote.

wow, everything good, is due to woke liberals.

tell sue in CT to look at the taxes deducted from her paycheck, compared to what would be deducted if she lived elsewhere. watch sue move to FL, because CT no longer has any value proposition.

and tell Sue the reason she can enjoy these things, is because she wasn’t aborted.

Actually Sue looked at Floriduh, but home prices and taxes are up 30%, Homelessness in Florida becoming middle-class problem.
And just wait till you get your homeowners insurance increase.

Sue’s mother had an abortion at 15, Sue was one of two children her mother had when she got married after college, that’s why she grew up in a stable middle income family.

home prices are up everywhere. and there’s no state income tax, so higher taxes in FL are still a whole lot lower then CT. sorry to insert facts into your rant.

you’re making a lot of silly assumptions about sue.
