Dems would take us from bad to worse
Dear Editor,
About a year ago, consumer confidence was at a two-year high. Gasoline was barely above $2 a gallon. Now consumer confidence is at a 26-year low. Gasoline is approaching $4 a gallon. 
What happened?
Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reed took over our legislative bodies in Washington, DC. They mandated corn be used to replace gasoline resulting in higher prices for food. To their credit, they did name a bunch of Post Office buildings. 
Now, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama want to raise your taxes when either becomes president. We have gone from bad to worse with the potential of going even worse. 
Marvin L. Jones, Hollister
