newsday letter

This is the letter that was published in Newsday Feruary 24, 2014 WE MUST STRIVE TO END POVERTY Do not be afraid of 16 poor children at a homeless shelter in Commack("Shelter causes a storm," Feb. 17)Be afraid of poverty that can grind down the human spirit. End poverty by creating good paying jobs for all as we rebuild our nation's bridges,tunnels,rails, and roads. Invest in education and job training. Raise the minimum wage so that all those who work 40 hours a week will be above the poverty level. Regulate the banks so that all can make some money, instead of a few insiders. Reform the tax system so all pay a fair share and poverty will be abolished. Fear poverty and love the 16 children. p.s. In my original letter I had added this note: If you agree with these five points please contact your elected officials and ask them to vote affirmative on these points.
