If you know or see a police officer, it would be most appropriate to say "Thank you."
This noble profession is serving the public during an increasingly dangerous and precarious time.
The brave should be most appreciated and not go unrecognized. With that said, it would also be right to apologize to the younger folks among us for what we have done to them.
I figure there are now over 50 million younger people who mostly don't have a chance to live the "American Dream."
With prices the way they are, the vast majority will be unable to buy a house or pay rent along with other expenses.
The youths of today are the victims of your own government's overspending that has caused this to happen.
Now with so many more individuals forced into a state of confusion, it is no wonder we are experiencing a higher level of mental health problems.
What's our government's answer?
To expand their control, print more money and come to the rescue (Feb. 21 Skagit Valley Herald article "Schools get funds for mental health.")
For the sake of a more stable and sane society, our government was intended to work from the bottom up in a fiscally responsible way.
Instead of from the top down, our own PTAs should be in primary control of our schools.
It saddens me that our school boards choose to act so innocently ignorant, just go along to get along and not wanting to bite back.
Because of our being so steadily dumbed down, I can see that is already too late.
