From Martinsburg:
I don't know Betty DeHaven, nor have I read Ayn Rand's "Fountainhead" but I found the former's letter to the editor in Saturday's Journal to be one of the best written and more intuitive and compelling arguments for individualism over collectivism I've ever read. The very positive impression the novel made on Ms. DeHaven suggests to me it should be required reading in every high school Social Studies class in the country.
From Charles Town:
As testing for CoVid becomes more widespread, and we are finding a greater number of people show positive but do not show symptoms, much less die from the disease, why are we not allowed to be responsible adults? Increase of positives is actually demonstrating lower mortality rate and much higher recovery rate. We need to be released from the bondage of imposed social isolationism. We are living in a Socialist paradise of a forced collapsed economy.
From Hedgesville:
6.6 million going to college students in West Virginia 100,000 for essential workers to split in each county. 40% raise to snap plus 300 debit card. Seniors and veterans... nothing except higher taxes.
From Gerrardstown:
Tues. I went to the County Clerk's office to return my primary ballot. It was scary. The only person, besides myself, wearing a mask was the officer at the door checking people in. Not one employee in that entire complex, that I saw, wore a mask. To quote Daffy Duck, "It's DisssPICable" that county employees servicing the public are not wearing masks. Wear a mask, protect others.
From Hedgesville:
Trump's valet who tested positive for Covid19 was part of a team that served his meals and soda. Yet, he claims he ".....had little personal contact with the valet..." Does someone bringing you meals not an up close and personal contact? Next Pence will claim no personal contact with his press secretary. Why does Trump attempt to distance himself from anyone who brings negative "vibes" on him?
From Charles Town:
Yipppy Yay! Michael Flynn gets off the hook in time to recruit the Russians for 2020 election. Just in time.....Bill Barr to the rescue again.
From Martinsburg:
Senator John Unger, who is a great person, says on the news that there is money in bank in WV for COVID-19, now get that governor in gear, and get that money out NOW for people, people need that money for research.
From Morgan County:
To Martinsburg;True, unemployment is very high, under this terrible pandemic created in China, not in the U.S., and certainly not by Trump. $5 trillion in debt, terrible. You think this stimulus money was plucked from a tree, really?
From Martinsburg:
It sure would be nice to lower Comcast bills because there is nothing to watch on tv.
From Martinsburg:
Lost keys on Tuesday, May 5th either on King Street by the Journal office or at Bob's carry out. One key has a plastic yellow house on it. "If found please call 304-676-2888" There is a reward for it.
From Berkeley County:
Trump is following his past practices of bankrupting everything he touches. Now America is set to follow his lead into trillions of dollars added to the national debt, as lost people, unemployment and the recovery costs will mount due to Trump's failure to mount a strong action plan to meet COVID-19 threat.
