Letter: Column was bigoted against billionaires

Editor,

Please, oh please! Do continue to print Mr. Seraphinoff’s opinions.

I am a conservative who used to identify with the Democrat Party, but never again. The residents of Whidbey need to hear more of this man’s bigotry and hallucinations in order to perhaps cause more reasonable people to get out and vote.

Bigotry can be seen whenever one group of people are vilified with a large brush as did the writer in his opinion.

Hallucinations might include statements like, “The billionaire class has more than its share of the depraved and corrupt.” Is this what the writer taught the students of our little Skagit Valley College? And this one, ”wealthy people work against things like voting rights for common folk.“ Golly! Really ?

Yes, I do want to see more of this writer’s thoughts in your paper.

Thank you for printing the opinion page.
