David Sweet is a former professor at UCSC. He publishes once a month in the Santa Cruz Sentinel. Recently, Mr. Sweet wrote a letter to the editor — to which James Jackson, Esq. responds:
Prize Hokum
“David Sweet advises that if we only leave Afghanistan, the government can guarantee reasonably paid jobs to all of us. I am sure they all nodded yes to this in his sociology class, but here in the real world this is prize hokum. Short of putting us all in the Re-elect Obama campaign committee, how will the government, which has no money but ours, do this?
Lift that barge, tote that bale.”
James Jackson, Aptos
