The Daily News is to be commended for printing Ivan Seligman’s letter, “Just one small point.”
Seligman laments “our taking freedom for granted and our collective forgetting of wounded veterans and millions of lives lost in all wars.”
Accentuating Seligman’s observation, it seems that too many of America’s citizens don’t want to serve their country, pay taxes or vote. Yet, so many of us never hesitate to belly up to the money trough.
It would probably be a shock to know what percentage of our congressional membership has served America, aside from the existing bloated financial bureaucracy.
Meanwhile, on another topic, you can always tell when a fresh load of corn has rolled into town: Your paper prints a letter from Fred Tobias!
