Cal Thomas Commentary 10-15-26

In a little more than two weeks, Congress may have a different profile.

Democrats, according to polls, will win a House majority.

The Senate is too close to call.

If you watch the TV ads anywhere in the country, they all say basically the same thing.

Politicians promise they'll lower the costs of everything but never say how.

The market decides that.

They'll improve education, but school choice is doing quite well.

Missing from all the ads is what you and I should be doing for ourselves.

We put too much faith in government, not enough in us.

Initiative, motivation were once recommended to improve any life.

As we approach another open Medicare enrollment season, you'll hear the words entitlement, benefit, and free.

Didn't President Kennedy say not to ask what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country? In the AOC Bernie Sanders America, Kennedy would never be elected.

Come on, America, stop being passive and do more for yourselves.

Ride a bike, get an electric car to save fuel, cut back on certain foods and lose weight, reduce spending.

We can do it.

I'm Cal Thomas.
