We all do a lot of complain ing these days about inflation, and how little our dollar buys. We have reason for complaint, too. But this is an election year. Let us take a close look at those who are running for election. Let us really assess their plans and promises for upcoming programs. Let us be sure that they are not too “spend happy” with our tax money. We are sending too many people to Washington, D. C., whose main aim is to see how much Federal money they can get for their individ ual districts. We’re all selfish, I admit—but the time is ap proaching when we will have to be content to let some of these Federal projects ride a year or so until we get Federal spending in line with the taxes the government collects. I was pleased to hear Presi dent Nixon state that the gov ernment must curb its deficit spending and get the budget balanced so the public can balance their own budgets. This continual spending is wrecking our country, and it is just a question of time until we’ll have our dollar shrink to the point where we’ll have to take money to the store by the armload to purchase the ne cessities of life. Personally, I’d rather see the economy cool off a bit, and stabilize our dollars so that they will real- ly buy something. It will do us no good to kick about inflation and then turn around and vote for those who would give the country more of the same medicine that has sent the cost of living through the roof and cut the value of the dollar by more than half.
