Letter: Tsongas is clear choice

Tsongas is clear choice

To the editor:

This fall's elections will have huge implications for Middle Class America.

Democrat Niki Tsongas will go to battle for the Middle Class. America can not afford to elect any more Republicans. The Republican big bankers on Wall Street continue to keep the economy from growing by restricting credit to small businesses. The Republican scheme is to keep the economy in the doldrums so President Obama's recovery plan will fail.

Congresswoman Tsongas has proved that she will cast her votes for all Americans.

We already know that the Republican policy goal is to take down the Middle Class in this country! Republicans policies will lead to more American jobs sent to foreign nations. Republicans' trickle down economics plot has proven a dreadful failure. Very little ever trickled down. The top wage earners in this country have seen their wages increase 500% since the Reagan era started, while average American worker wages have remained stagnant or barely kept up with inflation!

The last 30 years, which I call, the "Reagan Republican Boondoggle" has led to the largest transfer of wealth from the Middle Class to a small select group of multinational corporations and people this country has ever seen.
