Do you realize that the big corporations are running this country? They scored another hit on workers when they downgraded pension funds and health benefits.
The workers didn’t get a raise did they? No! But the big companies sure did benefit. No wonder they record profits. The outcome is very unAmerican! Support your unions to get raises and benefits!
No more privations — this helping the rich get taxpayers’ money and don’t pay fair wages! It costs more!
Hands off Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. We paid into these!
I say no work, no pay! Those Congressmen block all legislation I don’t call work!
Make them earn their pay! Cut their entitlements, not ours! That sure would help the big debt. To the new governor: where are the jobs? Or is it like when you were in Congress that you promised jobs but created none?
Millicent Wootten, Logansport

PUBLIC FORUM: Mayor tells residents of positive change
When the residents of Logansport elected me as their new mayor in November 2011, it was truly an honor.

PUBLIC FORUM: The reality of a new American Promise
Fracking. We’ve all heard the term lately. Fracking is the process whereby water and other chemicals are injected into the earth to cause underground rock formations to fracture, creating space for oil and natural gas to collect and be pumped to the service.
