Don\u2019t change Florida
<\/strong>Florida\u2019s beautiful weather, no state income tax and all-around wonderful quality of life brings many people from across the country to relocate here (\u201cNYC is back, baby .\u2009.\u2009. in Fla.,\u201d Feb. 14).<\/p>\n

I have noticed an alarming trend among those who move from New York and other states where there are sky-high housing costs, even higher taxes and crime and traffic are facts of life.<\/p>\n

They come down and continue the same voting patterns that they left. Like a plague spreading a disease, they start bringing these idiotic, big-government ideas into this state and begin destroying communities with new tax-and-burn policies and regulations.<\/p>\n

Soon enough, the sanctuary-state ideology will rear its ugly head, taxes will soar, welfare and homelessness will rise, jobs will be lost and businesses will move, setting the stage for ruining the very places they thought would be their refuge.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t try and change Florida. Let Florida change you.

Gem disconnect
<\/strong>Shame on you for including an article on the wealthy having jewelers come to their homes to sell them jewelry (\u201cDiamonds on demand,\u201d Feb. 16).<\/p>\n

People spending $100,000 for a necklace and $15,000 for matching earrings is not what Americans need to read about after suffering under an almost year-long pandemic.<\/p>\n

The wealthy gushing over how \u201camazing and so intimate\u201d these parties are is disgusting when people are getting killed on the subways and Americans are having so many problems getting a vaccine.

Pelosi\u2019s probe
<\/strong>Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi having Congress establish an official commission to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol Hill riot is understandable (\u201cSubpoena power sought,\u201d Feb. 19).<\/p>\n

So is the establishment of a similar commission to investigate other attacks on public buildings, police stations, private businesses, arson, physical assault on law-enforcement officials and billions of dollars in destruction around the nation led by Antifa and other extremist groups on the left which went on across the nation last year as well.<\/p>\n

Political extremists on both the right and left need to be held accountable for their actions.

Fear for America
<\/strong>As an American who did not vote for President Biden, I have had a difficult time finding words to describe my trepidation on his presence as a leader of my beloved country (\u201cNevertheless, Xi persisted,\u201d Dominic Green, Feb. 14).<\/p>\n

Green did that for me. With intelligence and humor, he has put my fears into words.<\/p>\n

His last paragraph put me into a brief state of mourning: \u201cThe world is saying goodbye to America. Americans should understand that this means that they too will be saying goodbye to America.\u201d God help us.

\u2018No mask\u2019 dream
<\/strong>While I agree with Karol Markowicz that it would be great to be done with masks after this virus, I think it\u2019s wishful thinking (\u201cMask Forever? Hell No,\u201d PostOpinion, Feb. 16).<\/p>\n

We now have a whole generation that thinks mask wearing is critical to living and believes that giving up personal freedom to the government because of \u201cscience<\/a>\u201d is OK.<\/p>\n

The rich have become richer, our public servants have become dictators and our children and a bulk of this population have become so scared of dying that they don\u2019t have a life. We have become pathetic lemmings going off a cliff.
