The doctors in Califorina are asking for the state to subsidize in surance to pay for their malpractice. This is “Socialism” for the Doctors, who already are the highest paid profession in the U.S.A. Most insurance companies are now featuring “Major Medical Policies” which guarantee that doctors and hospitals can collect up to one quarter of a million dollars from each policy holder during his life, paid for of course by “the people” (policy holders who may never use it). That is “Socialism ” for the medical profession. If the national debt goes up $43,000,000,000 This year as expected, the annual interest on that amount alone will be about $3 Billion dollars paid by the people (taxpayers) to the money lenders, for which they do not have to “work.” This is “Socialism” for the bankers. Just think how much the interest is on the total national debt each year. When the Railroads or the Airplanes go bankrupt because they pay their Executives too much for too little and the government has to underwrite the cost, that is “Socialism” for the Executives. When the rich man invest his money in the “tax sheltered” bonds his income is not taxed, which means that someone else pays his taxes for him. That is “Socialism” for the rich. Someone has said that what we have in this country is Socialism for the rich and free enterprise for the workers. What is good for one ought to be good for the toher. Let's Revamp Washington The following does not necessarily reflect the beliefs of Chowan College or the staff of Smoke Signals. By: MIKE WILKINSON Hi y’all, the main purpose of this letter is to propel some interest in the upcoming election. Given the right to vote, quite a few of us haven’t exercised that privilage. Today Washington is working on a “buddy system” designed to benefit a fellow politician, not the fellow American. Ronald Reagan is the one candidate whom I beleive can organize the government. He is stressing the need to work within the people. In California, while governor, he got behind the people, thus, getting the state out of debt. After talking with him in Flordia, during our Christmas break, I was convinced that he could get America out of debt also. Rather than shipping our grain and much-needed food overseas, he would ship our “know-how.” After all, you can give a hungry man a fish today but he will still be hungry tomorrow, teach him to fish today and he will feed himself tomorrow. He has proposed 90 billion dollar federal budget-cut plan that would work systematically to get the spendings back on the state level. This would give more money to the desperately needy (welfare), and eliminate the large number of people using welfare so selfishly. Detente would work just fine if Russia would make it a “two-way street.” As it stands. Ford is letting Russia rule Detente on a one-way street. Regan would tell theni to get us in the picture or we would drop out of Detente. He feels there is no way to spend too much money for national security or defense. We need to spend enough money for our military programs to remain as the strongest in the world. It’s not too early to get behind your candidate. Mine is Ronald Reagan.
