Letter: Biden's mental decline

2 weeks ago | tucson.com | Craig Miller

Several writers have commented that Biden had a decline mentally towards end of his term. It does appear so, however this isn't the first time it has occurred In the Presidency. Wilson suffered a stroke and Reagan was never the same after being shot. When Biden was President our economy was the envy of the world. We had inflation but not to the degree of other countries. Now we have inflation and a failing economy due to Trump's erratic tariff policies.
Letter: Legislature pay

1 month ago | tucson.com | Craig Miller

I have a solution to the state legislators who want a raise. It will give them double per hour raise without costing anything. Cut the legislative session in half. It would make them more focused on the real issues. Less time for them to come up with wacky ideas, less time to defund the public schools and trying to overturn initiatives approved by the populace.

Letter: Ciscomani needs a backbone

1 month ago | tucson.com | Craig Miller

Ciscomani needs to grow a spine. He lied in his campaign that he was bipartisan. He barely won. Now he ducks meeting constituents put of fear of having to explain his votes. His office never responds to direct questions. Our elected officials should be responsive to the public not hiding and quaking in fear of being forced to defend their positions.

Letter: Law and order disparity

1 month ago | tucson.com | Craig Miller

So MAGA world is upset about attacks on Teslas. I don't condone violence as a form of protest, it's inexcusable. But the MAGA crowd that applauded the pardon of insurrectionists who attacked police officers and wanted to hang Mike Pence feel that a 20-year prison sentence is appropriate for torching a car. Priorities and sense of justice are seriously out of proportion. Craig MillerNorthwest sideDisclaimer: As submitted to the Arizona Daily Star. Video Player is loading.
Letter: Understanding Trump

1 month ago | tucson.com | Craig Miller

Trump has one trait that explains most of his actions. Everything is transactional. His marriage is obviously. All that matters is how he benefits. He registered as a Republican in in 1987, and since then he has changed his party affiliation 5 times. There's no coherent moral basis for his actions. He hasn't an altruistic bone in his body. He didn't understand why soldiers would sacrifice. Craig MillerNorthwest sideDisclaimer: As submitted to the Arizona Daily Star. Video Player is loading.
Letter: Cutting government costs

2 months ago | tucson.com | Craig Miller

Trump when he was first elected stated he "wouldn't have as much time to golf" as Obama. He'd be too busy governing. His first term cost taxpayers $151 million for his golfing. So far this year over $18 million. With the average income in this country being $39k, that's a lot of ordinary salaries for his diversion. it means fiscal responsibility and cutting expenses doesn't extend to him and billionaire friends.
Letter: Fentanyl deaths

Feb 6, 2025 | tucson.com | Craig Miller

In 2023 over 100,000 deaths from drug overdoses. Over 50 years ago Nixon declared the war on drugs, we had just say no, and draconian penalties for crack cocaine. Most fentanyl comes from US citizens at legal ports of entry. Maybe it's time to legalize most drugs. Deaths would probably drop due to less fentanyl added to drugs. Savings would be enormous, no need for thousands of troops that don't stem the flow. Vastly better ways to spend the money.
Letter: Falsely accusing movies

Jan 6, 2025 | tucson.com | Craig Miller

Another letter rehashing the old view that violence in this country is due to movies and television. Ive been in many European countries, they see same movies and play the same games. They don't have the consistent violence that occurs here. The Bible has more violence than most entertainment. Income disparity, poor education, and lack of mental health treatment are among the real causes. It's easier to blame entertainment than address the real causes.
Letter: Literacy

Nov 3, 2024 | tucson.com | Craig Miller

According to the Department of Education in 2020, 54% of adults lack basic literacy skills. Most Scandinavian countries have literacy rates of close to 100%. This does explain why so many people here will accept bluster and bs for answers to complex problems. Neither party seems willing to confront the problems of a populace that is uneducated, is less healthy, has a shorter life span and more chronic disease than other industrial nations.
Letter: Hurricane relief

Oct 10, 2024 | tucson.com | Craig Miller

I'm glad to see Taylor Swift gave 5 million toward hurricane relief. Instead of spreading lies, why doesn't billionaire Trump follow Swift's example and pony up some cash? Maybe some of the money from USA bibles that were made in China. Craig MillerNorthwest sideDisclaimer: As submitted to the Arizona Daily Star. Video Player is loading.
