To the Editor:
It was interesting to hear the president's perception of the condition of our country in the annual State of the Union speech earlier this week.
So, just what is the state of our nation?
• $3.60-plus a gallon gas prices
• Unemployment 8 percent or more for over four years
• Annual federal budget deficits $800 billion to $1.6 trillion for over four years
• $16,500,000,000,000 national debt and climbing.
I guess if this is the new normal, then everything is great.
