Where to begin? Let’s start with a list: Comma splices, inappropriate use of capitals, the miss use of a parenthetical, and finally, ending a sentence with a preposition. As for your attempt at poetry, even doggerel should have some standards, like consistency, if you are going to capitalize the first word of each line do it every time, and let’s be honest, a slant rhyme is always an offence to the ears.
As a sidebar, the last Communist, was Leon Trotsky. He was assassinated in Mexico in 1940. Everyone that has been labeled a Communist since is a pure authoritarian, like Putin or Xi or Obregon- you know all the guys that Trump calls his buddies.
Your level of childish schadenfreude will never be socially acceptable at least you’d get laughed at less if you made an effort at literacy.
As for the heart-felt apology- if you are a product of Sheridan schools consider it given.

Unfortunately, America’s universities and big blue cities are filled with Communists. They have yet to learn that collectivism/communism/socialism has failed everywhere it’s been tried.
We have to keep re-learning the lessons of History.

So, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark and even Canada are all failed states? Like all troglodytes, you would really benefit from crawling out of your cave once in awhile.

In the immortal words of Edmund Guinn, “Dying is easy, comedy is hard.” Yes there is a strong tradition of comedy in political satire in American politics. From Franklin to Twain to Will Rodgers and on to Rachel Maddow the tradition continues. But, given the acerbic reaction to all of your posts it’s clear that you are better at dying (on stage) than you are at comedy.

Well it finally happened. Someone else in the area is speaking up about getting rid of the One Percent EXCESS Sales Tax.
Good job Ms. Cade and thanks for defending the thousands who are struggling under both Bidenomics and the Excessively High 6% Sales Tax. If our “Rulers” don’t put it on the ballot, it will drop to a more reasonable 5% Tax.
Lower Taxes Are Always Better and will help everyone in this record-high stagflation-type economy.

It sounds like if it is on the ballot, the will of the people will prevail and pass. One percent does so much for our community. Go stand in front of the HUB with one of your silly signs and see what happens. The citizens have seen the value for many years. We’re with the majority of counties in our state.

Last election saw the highest percentage of voters (40%) in over 20 years, wanting a lower, more reasonable 5% Sales Tax!
The record high prices for Everything and 40 year high inflation has many people asking: Why do we keep taxing ourselves to death?
Time to lift the Tax Burden of the second highest sales tax in Wyoming. (Only one county, Teton, has a higher sales tax than Sheridan…and we’re not Billionaires here.)
