Remember all those crucial issues you were voting on? Where have they gone now that election is over?

0What happened to all the so-called important issues?
The “critical” vote-getting headliners?
Student loan forgiveness? I guess Mr. Biden couldn’t give away 400 billion on his signature? But who cares? The election is over!
Minority “equal” rights! Pick one. They all made headlines in order to get a vote. But—the election is over. So we haven’t heard much.
Abortion! It comes up every election…anything to get a vote! There are at least 5 or 6 dozen State and Federal laws pertaining to this issue, and they all say more or less the same thing. But—a vote is a vote.
We also have a few minor issues:
- A 31 trillion-dollar deficit, thanks to pork barrel spending.
- A run-away inflation rate—thanks to political in-fighting.
- A labor shortage because the giveaway programs pay better than the jobs available.
- And a border crisis because people are trying to flood into the “Land of Milk and Honey” —to work.
So: What influenced YOUR vote?
Those supposed “critical, important issues”—or the facts?
