LETTER: Joe Biden and his tax hikes

Updated October 6, 2020 - 9:50 pm

I am not sure where Joe Biden took economics, but he should know that the economy is all intertwined. When you tax somebody, they have to get it from somewhere. Mr. Biden said he would tax only people who make $400,000 or more. Well, I don’t think those people have trees in their backyards where they can just pull some more cash off. It has to come from somewhere. Eventually, the costs will find their way down to us. It’s called the trickle-down effect.

THE LATEST
LETTER: Student protesters leave behind a mess

Those arrested on campus for breaking the law should be given a choice: Thirty days in jail and a criminal record or a garbage bag and gloves.

LETTER: Las Vegas should be happy to welcome the A’s

Many of us look forward to the A’s arriving and appreciate the confidence owner John Fisher has in the Las Vegas area. We will work to make the team successful.

LETTER: Giving Donald Trump a pass

Listen to the evidence that will be presented at Donald Trump’s trials before reaching any conclusions. And remember that those giving the most damning testimony will likely be Republicans.

LETTER: Why does Las Vegas keep building houses?

How can we ask the federal government for additional funds to fight the drought when we keep pulling billions of gallons of water out of the Colorado River, which feeds Lake Mead?

LETTER: Highways will go the way of the horse and buggy

I personally can’t wait to give up the soporific scenery, racetrack-like mentality and beautiful Baker bathroom stops of the Interstate 15 car commute in favor of a sleek, smooth train.
