As my phone rang for the fifteenth time this morning from a boiler room, I said to myself, I will vote for whomever can permanently get rid of this g-d annoyance!
I literally get a dozen of these a day eventhough I am on the Do Not Call register and have a computer program on my phone that rings the phone only once if it is from a boiler room. Still some get through.
You’d think the phone company would want to squelch this as it likely is a major reason people give up the landline.
We went digital and subscribed to NoMoRobo. The phone rings once, and then cuts off automated calls. For people calling, We won’t be answering numbers we don’t recognize. If they leave a message we can see who it’s from and delete from the TV screen or laptop.
I would vote for a candidate who can force the food makers to cut the amount of sugar in foods in half! Seriously, I had to pour half of my hot chocolate into the sink and replace its volume with milk to make the thing drinkable. Too much sugar kills the taste of many foods for me! And not too many foods can be diluted like my hot chocolate example.
Someone who would promise to make a priority making sense of ‘studies’ and telling what they really say and don’t say. So when they come out with the next study that contradicts another study that contradicts another, maybe we’ll find out they really don’t say anything at all (if you haven’t seen it, go to you tube and look up John Oliver’s screed on studies…). The other thing would be to make things like “all natural”, “organic” and so forth have real meaning.
I would vote for someone who mandated that manuals for electronics have to be clearly worded, with symbols big enough and easily recognizable for what they stand for, and overall non-microscopic print.
Just got a new camera and cannot see the symbol pictures in the manual, much less what they stand for. Just indistinguishable lines and shapes.
I would vote for the person who would take care of my health care costs for life. (insurance pymts, medical bills, prescription costs)
I would also vote for the person who would be able to resolve any health issues that I may have so that I could enjoy a healthy and mobile life.
I once lived in a district that had a long term incumbent congressman and his only rival from the other party was a guy who - well, his main issue was getting people to get a tax exemption for owning pets. His second issue was repealing the 2nd amendment so that gun control would not be unconstitutional.
You’d have better luck electing Ms. No Japanese beetles!
I would vote for the person who can make everyone be nice to everyone else. No more bullying, no more mocking, no more challenging. Just nice and supportive and encouraging.
