Tightening the noose around the poor


THE EDITOR: I would like to let you know that just last week I had a protest card printed on my vehicle which stated "Let your light bill be your eyes and one should use this as your guide and vote wisely in the upcoming general elections." I was referring to the rise in electricity that is being proposed.


I am not an economist or adviser to any financial company, but common sense tells me that what is being planted today are high prices without any let up that will cause total chaos for the children of tomorrow. Today, we are tightening the noose around the poor and less fortunate in the society and strangling the youth of tomorrow, so you see it is not all of us who are of the total carnival mentality. Some of us are still thinking straight.
