When government ceased to back our currency with silver in 1964, nobody seemed to Everytime the government increased social security was It was even okay when the government changed social security since the Boston Tea Party and the Whiskey Rebellion my has there been a organized revolt against Most people have accepted the fact that like are a fact of What I see happening is for every raise in taxes another year is taken off At the rate taxes are increasing I am quite confident that I will lose the ability to support myself when I reach retirement you can I am not happy about what the government does to both consumers and In I am wondering when the government will start handing out jars of vaseline when certain laws are imposed on everywhere are joining forces to show their fighting for Farmers are Why should or any of us for that have to pay for the constitutional right to life pursuit of I don't know what action must be taken to wake the and the up to the needs of both consumer and the government is offering all kinds of assistance loans and you qualify and meet their effort to correct the crisis situation that they all know that when we vote we are putting our faith in the democratic process and our trust in the elected But sometime or haven't we each said don't they check with me YEARS NEW EACH ONLY ONE IN THE UNITED STATES 102 35 February 28,1985 Iowa 50581 Six Pages Single Copy 25' Scouts Scout Pack 76, of held its annual Blue and Gold Banquet at St. Lutheran Church on Feb. 24.
