July 10

Orchids to

Aaron Miller for his guest column in Wednesday’s Republic regarding the new “Gilded Age” in America, which is “gilded” only for the very few, very rich.

all three letters in the Your Views section that actually talk about common sense.

the Bartholomew County commissioners for their foresight in recognizing the need for the quality, well-designed pickleball courts at Dunn Stadium.

the mounting criticism of the current administration and those who won’t forget, won’t keep quiet, stand on principle, honesty, and justice and make their voices heard now.

Kelly Daugherty and The Republic for giving us the facts about the recent bill and its effect on those in need in our community.

Onions to

the controlled society we are becoming.

the state we live in for being one of only 15 that doesn’t fully fund elementary school lunches, regardless of student family income.

our existing regime cutting off money to the departments designed to warn and protect us from devastating weather and the global warming creating these storms.

all who support an accused war criminal offender nominating a convicted felon for a Nobel Peace Prize.

the KOTUS, who lives in a utopia, while the rest of us fear the loss of human rights, women’s rights, Medicaid, voting rights, a better future for our families, our freedom and democracy.

Happy Belated Birthday to

Joyce Dempsey, from Tom.
