Dr. Glenn Mollette  This wonderful month will be over soon but there is much to note about May.  Mother’s Day is a beautiful day. The day has come and gone but the day emphasizes a day to celebrate mom. I remember my mother who was so dear. I Remember and cherish those beautiful years.  We take our pictures and they eventually may fade but the memories and love we have for our mothers will never go away.  During May we celebrate a lot of graduations. Graduation is ongoing as colleges, high schools and even the junior highs, elementaries, and preschools are…

Dear Editor, Unlike my usual gripe and whine, I am pleased to continue on a quite positive note. I recently had the privilege of listening to 4th District Supervisorial candidate, Don Martin speak about his view of the responsibilities to be assumed by a potential Mohave County Supervisor. I was impressed by his fervor in describing just how much he loves Mohave County and its citizenry. He also spoke on some subjects near and dear to my heart,(i.e.) his life’s service to his fellow man and his experiences here would fill a very informative, instructive and uplifting book. That and…

The rain, the thunder & lightning….we thought…

Dear Editor, Animal rights advocacy is an important and necessary movement that seeks to protect the rights of animals and promote their welfare. Animals are sentient beings that deserve respect and humane treatment, just like humans. They should not be subjected to cruelty, abuse, or exploitation in any form. The importance of animal rights and ways to get involved in animal rights advocacy Is a must for all people.  It is important to know animals have the ability to suffer and feel pain, just like humans. They are not mere objects to be used for human purposes, but living beings…

Dear Editor, Mr. Dickson, Here again Congress can fix the loopholes in our tax system. Why would they when they benefit from it? Don’t you think Hillary Clinton, Barrack Obama, and Joe Biden take advantage of it as well? At least a flat tax would be more fair to all. President Trump’s tax cuts put more money in our pockets as individuals. The corporate tax cut was to help our businesses be competitive as our corporate tax rate was higher than other countries we trade with. This encourages our companies to operate here instead of exporting jobs overseas. With tax…

Dear Editor, Mr. Goyeneche, again I have to agree, congress should amend tax laws politicians should not enter the institution paupers and exit millionaires. However, I am not suggesting millionaires be ‘punished for being successful.” I simply believe they should be made to pay their fair share of taxes. I believe it was Warren Buffet who commented he pays less taxes than his secretary. To me that is not equitable. Trump’s tax cuts allowed corporations to buy back shares of their own stocks. Lowe’s bought back ten billion dollars’ worth of their shares, then fired thousands of workers. As for…
