Letter: Politicians not living in our real world

I saw the headline in Saturday’s paper, “Biden sees economy avoiding recession.” I read a little bit of it and then got so disgusted. All of the excuses that politicians come up with no longer surprises me.

I’d like to see him get a low-paying job, pay for child care and either pack your lunch (expensive) or go to a fast food restaurant to eat on your lunch break, also expensive. Then gas money.

Add that up, and see how much money you are really making per hour. I want to bake cookies for the holidays, and does he or any other politician realize that Crisco is over $8 now? When is the last time any one of them had to take a calculator to the grocery store? We are in a recession now!

Oh, and don’t even get me started on how they get free health care. Has any of them not went to the doctor because they just couldn’t afford it? Just saying…
