Utility bills, gasoline prices, and Ukraine

Dear Editor, Most of us simply want peace in our lives, nation, and world. We enjoy resting in a warm or cool house with something to eat, free from worry and stress. Peace is not always easy.

Dear Editor, America is no longer buying energy or vodka from Russia. Russians can no longer buy a McDonald’s hamburger. They can’t pay for their gasoline with a Visa, Mastercard, or even an American Express card. One thousand Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurants have ceased operations in Russia. How tough can life become? For a better picture of a tough life, watch some of the news clips played daily on most television stations. See what the Russians are doing each day to Ukraine.
