Political Quotes

On the recordMarch 3, 2021
In an era of fake news, it is refreshing to find editorialist Jerry Bellune, editor of the Lexington County Chronicle, expose the tragic fraud being perpetrated on taxpayers: The Washington Swamp set up criminals to steal billions of dollars through fraud. In attempts to shovel money to the rest of us, Congress has created an opportunity for criminal fraud. Their real victims are us, the American taxpayers, and our great-grandchildren who will be paying for this folly for generations to come. The reality is that those who created the CARES Act set us up for up to $100 billion in fraud. The Labor Department inspector general estimates $63 billion in tax dollars were stolen. As the Chronicle Tech Talk columnist Katie Ritchie has warned, scammers wooed victims to convince them to give personal information. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. Our sympathy to the family of Chamber of Commerce President Bill Mooneyhan. ____________________
