THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA A Topekan has become
the first Democrat to file to run for the
2nd District Kansas Congressional
seat in 2022 against incumbent Jake
LaTurner.
Patrick Schmidt, 30, was raised
in Johnson County
but has extensive generational connections to
Pittsburg according to his campaign
website.
His parents were
both teachers who
Schmidt worked other jobs
in farming and
retail to help make
ends meet the website states.
A campaign staffer told The
Kansas City Star last week Schmidt
(no relation to Kansas Attorney
General Derek Schmidt) left the
U.S. Navy where he was a commissioned officer earlier this year and
moved to Topeka. The website gives
no other details on Schmidts degree,
course of study or other past employment.
The website includes a broad discussion of Schmidts fathers health
struggles and the familys resulting
financial struggles.
Im worried about our country
and our state, Schmidt told the
Star. Instead of investing in our
future and rebuilding our economy,
we are divided by partisan bickering. During my service on the USS
Ronald Reagan, I saw firsthand the
impact the United States makes in
the world when we are strong and
united. After the pandemic, we need
to build a stronger economy if we

The return of the Richmond Free Fair to
its regular format, after a very abbreviated
2020 version due to COVID, was a success.
With rain in the forecast a number of parade
entries decided not to partake, but the rain
held off and it was perfect weather come
parade time.
Pictured above is Jordy Ferguson during
Saturdays balloon toss before the parade.
Pictured to the right is the Fuller-Thompson
American Legion Post 48 Color Guard from
Garnett leading the parade entries.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A blow-up over baseball programs and coaching led
to the resignation of a USD 365
School Board member last week,
with remaining
board members
presumably starting the process to
fill the vacancy in
coming weeks.
Nicci
Denny of Garnett,
who served from
Position 7, was
Denny appointed to fill
the vacancy left
by Cleon Rickel in 2018 and was
elected after running for the post in
November 2019.
Denny did not return the Reviews
emails seeking comment, but a fivepage resignation letter tendered
to USD 365 Superintendent Don
Blome and other board members on
July 1 included specific description
of what she described as conflict
between her family and other students and parents with a district
staff member involved in the school
baseball program. Attorneys for the
school board redacted the names of
district staff and students included
in Dennys letter before providing it
to the Review upon the newspapers
request. Her letter alleges ongoing
conflict with those involved in the
districts baseball program and
Shawn Dennys Rage 14 and Under
summer league baseball squad, and
static that she said spilled over into
the ACHS classrooms between students and teachers due to that conflict.

up of 4H exhibits and events, the
traditional midway carnival and a
few new events thrown in for fun.
Fair association president Kirby

were excited to bring a full fair

abbreviated version that was shortened due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

the traditional fair with all the
bells and whistles, Barnes said.
We think this is a lineup thats
going to make up for some lost time
from last year and we hope people
will come out and enjoy it.
Barnes said a couple of organizational changes have been made
in order to streamline operations
this year, including an email-only registration plan for parade
entries. Anyone entering the July
27 parade should register by sending their information to andersoncofair@hotmail.com.
Also, tickets for the tractor pull
on July 24 will be $15 at
the gate no advance

High Kansas taxes mirror
loss of population, income over
study period in some counties
ANALYSYS
BY JDAVE TRABERT
THE KANSAS POLICY INSTITUTE
TOPEKA People are continually voting
with their feet as they leave high tax
states like Kansas, and that has taken $2.9
billion of adjusted gross income out of the
state over the last seven reported years.
Indeed, the rate is increasing as IRS
migration data for the years 2013-2019
shows the net loss (In-Migration minus
Out-Migration) is widespread and much
worse than earlier in the decade.
After net losses of $242 million and $153
million in 2013 and 2014, the loss jumped
to $509 million in 2015 and averaged $495
million over the next four years. Thats
an alarming trend and it is probably not a
coincidence.
It became apparent in 2015 that the
Brownback income tax plan was in serious
trouble when Republicans voted to raise
the sales tax instead of reducing waste
to balance the budget. Then Kansans

Parish officials say repairs were completed last week to roof damage done to St. Boniface
Church at Scipio during the June 11 storm in the area, and volunteers have been helping
move materials out of the parrish hall, which received significantly more damage. Father
Gerald Williams said no plan had yet been made as to the future of the parrish hall.

REMEMBRANCES
LEWIS
SHARA
MARCH 29, 1939 – JULY 8, 2021
Tommy Leonard Lewis, age
82, of Garnett, Kansas, passed
away on Thursday, July 8, 2021,
at Menorah Medical Center,
Overland
Park, Kansas.
He
was
born March
29, 1939, at
his home in
Leon, Kansas,
the son of
William
A r c h i e
Lewis
and
Opal
Winifred
(White) Lewis. The family relocated to the Bush City area
around 1950. His father died
shortly after, and the family
remained in the area. Tommy
graduated from Garnett High
School with the Class of 1957.
He farmed until he was drafted
to the United States Army from
1959 to 1962, extended seven
months in Germany during the
Berlin Crisis.
Tommy married Betty
Eileen Duff on June 4, 1966 at
the Presbyterian Church of
Garnett. This union was blessed with two daughters, Connie
Lynelle and Janet Kay.
He was known as a master
carpenter, home builder, and
cabinet maker in the Garnett
area. His carpentry skills
began at an early age with
his father, and continued to
develop under the guidance of
Harold Aldrich and Kenneth
Callahan. He carried on this
mentoring tradition with
Danny Whitcomb. His relationships with his customers did
not end at the completion of
a job, because once you got to
know him, you couldnt help
but love him. His skill, honesty, humility, and dedication
brought many lifelong customers who became friends.
While Tommy enjoyed
woodcarving and fishing, he
was never a man of leisure.
His work defined him, and his
dedication to his family and
customers will be his legacy.
Many beautiful homes and
buildings in the area were built
and maintained by Tommy,
including the First Baptist
Church and Farris-Feuerborn
Memorial Chapel.
He was an active trustee
at the First Baptist Church of
Garnett, and at one time served
on the board of the Garnett
Public Library. He enjoyed
walking on the Prairie Spirit
Rail Trail and recently served
on the committee to develop
the Anderson County Veterans
Memorial. Spending days in
his workshop or walking on
the trail with his best friend,
Pat DeVault, brought him great
joy in his final years.
Tom was preceded in death
by his parents, Archie Lewis
and Opal Kelley; his wife, Betty
Lewis on February 17, 2016;
and one brother, Kenny Lewis.
He is survived by his two
daughters, Connie Fagg and
husband Scott of Garnett,
Kansas; Janet Lewis and Ken
Lollar of Pittsburg, Kansas;
two granddaughters, Ashley
Mitko of Lees Summit,
Missouri; Alisha Schainost and
husband Tanner of Frontenac,
Kansas; good friend, Pat
DeVault; two sisters, Norma
Dressler and husband Roger of
Ottawa, Kansas; Nita Phipps
and husband A.C. of Butler,
Pennsylvania; sister-in-law,
Barbara Tornquist and husband Elmer of Hot Springs,
Arkansas; many nieces and
nephews, cousins and friends.
Funeral services were held
on Monday, July 12, 2021, at
the First Baptist Church in
Garnett, Kansas. Burial followed in the Garnett Cemetery.
Memorial contributions
may be made to the First
Baptist Church or toward a
memorial bench at the Garnett
Public Library.

Meditation
over Jeff Jenkins writing,
"Independence". We celebrate
Independence Day each year as
a remembrance of winning our
freedom from our governmental oppressor. Revelation 12:910 reminds us that Jesus set us
free from the greatest oppressor, Satan. Satan's purpose
is to kill, steal and destroy.
Jesus' purpose is to give us a
rich and fulfilling life. Jesus
came to earth to set us free! Let
Freedom Ring! (Ref: Revelation
12:9-10; Romans 8; John 8:32 &
36 and 10:10)
Pastor Chase Riebel gave
the sermon "Preparing for
the 2nd Mission" over Acts
15:36-41. Paul's second mission
reminds us to: 1. Hold Fast, and
2. Give Second Chances. Too
many people quit their marriages, quit on their children
or their parents, their jobs,
their government, and their
country. In 1776, our revolutionaries fought for our freedoms. Today we give our freedoms away. We need to Hold
Fast to God and to our community of believers! The Bible
tells us about Demas who loved
the things of this world, and of
Judas who betrayed Jesus for
30 pieces of silver. They quit on
God. We are called to patiently endure testing and temptation. Just like Job, enduring
this suffering will bring honor.
Remember that when things
get tough, go to God.
On Paul's second mission,
Mark quit on Paul. This caused
Paul and Barnabas to go their
separate ways with Paul taking Silas, and Barnabas taking
Mark. Just like God gives us
second chances (over and over
again), Barnabas gave Mark a
second chance. This allowed
the gospel to be spread twice as
fast because there were more
people on missions proclaiming the Good News. But before
we can be offered a second
chance, we must understand
what we've done wrong, then
abandon our pride so we can
enjoy our restoration. We must
come to the point where we
KNOW we NEED our Savior!
(Ref: Acts 15:36-41 & 13:13; 2

How does God feel about us?
John 3:16 says that, God so
loved the world that he gave his
one and only Son that whoever
believes in him shall not perish
but have eternal life. Melissa
Henderson, a guest contributor for Right From the Heart
Ministries writes as follows.
The thing about love is you
dont always feel it. Love is not
just a feeling, its a choice, an
intentional choice we make to
bestow on others. God chose to
love us from his first creation
of man.
From Genesis to Revelation
the Bible depicts Gods love for
his people and their response
to this love. In 1st Samuel the
prophet takes a plea from the
people for a king to God as
follows. We want a king over
us. Then we will be like all the
other nations, with a king to
head us and to go out before
us and fight our battles. The
implication here is the people
do not believe God can provide
the leadership they need. They
are willing to exchange divine
leadership for human visibility. They were not willing to
believe in a God who spoke to
them through a prophet and
this despite having seen God
deliver them time and time
again. Gods answer to them.
Listen to them and give them
a king. 1st Samuel 8:9-22 gives
the detail of what they were
signing up for by requesting a
king. Placing absolute power
in anyones hands other than
God can only lead to corruption and slavery.
So back to my original question. How does God feel about
us? I am positive God has not

changed how he feels for us.
God is immutable or unchangeable, if he changed at all he
would not be God. On the other
hand we bear a great resemblance to the Israelites. We
dont want to use Gods rules
because they limit our choices too much. We know what
we want, what we need. We
can follow God in some ways
but our self-expression must
be allowed to lead us where we
need to go.
So how does God feel about
us when we totally ignore him
or fail to follow him? He loves
us, gave his Son to die for us.
How do we feel about God? We
want to be king. I used to feel
that way. How could God know
what was best for me? He tells
us in Jeremiah 29:11. For I
know the plans I have for you
declares the LORD, plans to
prosper you and not to harm
you, plans to give you hope and
a future. God loves us but he
requires us to return that love
to him and then on to others

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, July 13, 2021
OPINION
Opportunity abounds in crime spike
Listen up economic development people,
Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, city
and county officials in Anderson County we
need to adopt a new development slogan and
recruitment campaign for our area aimed at the
recently crime-plagued cities of the nation.
The thrust of it would be something like this:
Come to Anderson County, Kansas, where we
probably wont shoot you.
Sure, it might have seemed like a message
that was a little obvious several years ago. But
just having witnessed a July 4 weekend that saw
some 540 shootings across the urban wastelands
of our country and 189 gun homicides, the fact
that our community doesnt require body armor
to enjoy a holiday weekend is becoming a real
selling point.
And its one we should be promoting head
on in advertising targeted at Chicago, Los
Angeles, Cleveland, Washington, D.C., Dallas,
etc. Move your business or your family here to
Anderson County, Kansas where people dont
typically shoot each other, burn down businesses in anti-police riots or poop on the sidewalk in
front of your restaurant.
Is it exploiting a negative? Of course it is. But
if youve been cured of toenail fungus by some
advertised remedy, your life is better right?
The same for folks living in these war zones.
You cant tell me there arent people in those
urban centers running small remote businesses
or doing Internet-based IT work who arent
thinking, ya know, I wonder what it would be
like to live in a place where bullets dont occasionally rip through the walls of my house?
Some of the statistics are staggering.
Portlands homicide rate jumped 700% yearover-year as of May 2021. Chicago homicide is
up 66%, Louisville, Ky., up 87%. St. Louis hit a
50 year murder rate high the Gateway To The
West now has three times as many murders
per 100,000 residents as Mexico and Central
America.
By their sheer volume and brutality, the
examples from July 4 weekend are as harrowing
as they are real. Two Chicago cops were shot
trying to break up a large gathering of revelers
just after a drive-by shooting killed two and
wounded two on Chicagos south side. Also shot
in the melee was a mother and her 6 year-old
daughter. Overall 95 people were shot in ChiTown from 5 p.m. Friday to 8 p.m. Monday, with
16 fatalities.
Norfolk, Va., police have charged a 15 yearold with the weekend shootings of four children
between the ages of 6 and 16. In Ohio, a 17 yearold boy was killed when it hailed bullets at a
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
Toledo block party, injuring 12 others. A brawl
then broke out with as many as 300 people fighting and some firing a gun in the air. Multiple
injuries, some critical.
Eight people were shot in Fort Worth after
a 1:30 a.m. argument at a car wash. Five others
were found shot in Dallas, three of them dead.
And I hate to say I told you so, but youll
recall a year ago when it became hip in the
countrys major cities to badmouth your police
departments and defund them in response to
the George Floyd riots, I wrote about what was
coming. Now American cities are reaping what
theyve sown, and the payoff is in bandages and
embalming fluid.
Bad as it is, its creating a viable market of
decent people making decent money living in
those cesspools that want out. My friends at The
Daily Wire for instance the conservative news
and commentary service that started up in 2015
in Los Angeles recently moved their operations to Nashville to escape the unfixable urban
rot now befalling the City of Angels and more
than half of their staff moved with them.
The point is, as long as irresponsible liberals are in charge of Americas urban centers,
genuflecting to the likes of Black Lives Matter
and lacking the guts to stand up to the Cancel
Culture mob and the ridiculous whim of every
woke special interest gang in their jurisdiction,
Americas cities will continue their decline.
Unfortunately, we have no reason to suspect its
going to get better anytime soon.
We should take advantage of it. As long as
that decline continues to alienate the good folk
remaining in those cities, it stimulates a market hungry for something we can offer them in
abundance decency. ###

is something you work on every day of your

When Democrats channel Reagan, somethings up
Its not often that a Democrat channels
Ronald Reagan, but President Joe Biden did
just that recently as he likened todays recovery to the economic boom experienced under
the conservative Republican president.
Biden kicked off the Fourth of July weekend by celebrating the latest jobs report, saying, The last time the economy grew at this
rate was in 1984 and Ronald Reagan was
telling us Its morning in America. Well, its
getting close to afternoon here, the sun is coming out.
Biden being Biden, he probably didnt
understand that afternoon in America
sounds like a country in decline. Reagans
evocation of morning suggested that the
best was yet to come. Reagan, the optimist, got
it right.
Biden evoking Regan takes chutzpah. The
reality is: Biden has had nothing to do with the
economic resurgence the country is currently
experiencing, while it was Reagans tax cuts
and deregulation that propelled tremendous
growth and job gains in the 1980s.
Too harsh? No. Consider the facts.
The economy is not rebounding because
of the American Rescue Plan (ARP), as Biden
would have you believe. If anything, elements
of that $1.9 trillion pork fest that passed with
only Democrat votes in March are holding us
back.
GUEST EDITORIAL
LIZ PEEK, FOX NEWS COMMENTATOR
The economy is recovering because
President Trumps Operation Warp Speed
delivered vaccines that drove COVID-19 into
the ground and allowed businesses to reopen.
Thats it thats what happened.
Remember that in the first quarter, long
before any of the ARP $1,400 checks went out,
the economy grew at over 6%; in fact, the
economy grew at 4.3 % in last years fourth
quarter, before Biden even took office and
prior to the $900 billion bipartisan stimulus
bill signed into law at the end of last year. The
gains came from mayors and governors taking
advantage of the slowdown in new virus cases
to allow restaurants and shops to reopen, and
people gaining confidence that it was safe to go
out of their homes.
On Jan. 6, 2021, there were 132,474 people
hospitalized in our country with COVID-19;
that proved to be the all-time high. By March
1, the number had fallen to 46,738. A combination of vaccines being delivered to the aged
and other vulnerable groups and some degree
of herd immunity meant that by early this
year the disease was winding down. Today,
the number of cases is down by over 90% from
the highs.
Americans responded to the improving
numbers by getting out and resuming their
lives, as authorities lifted restrictions. We
know that from various indicators, such as the
Apple Mobility Index, which shows a 99% rise
in inquiries about walking directions today
compared to a baseline of January 2020, and
a 66% rise in inquiries about driving instructions. Importantly, those numbers turned
around and began to rise in January of this
year; they never backed down.
It is true that the bipartisan stimulus bill
passed in December sent $600 checks to millions of Americans, but it was arguably the
ability to spend, and confidence that the virus
was waning, rather than the extra funds, that
led to the uptick in outlays.
SEE PEEK ON PAGE 6A
Republicans should bail in infrastructure deal
So far, the bipartisan infrastructure deal
is going through the normal life cycle of such
proposals — alive, dead, revived, uncertain.
For Republicans, the best answer should be
dead.
They have nothing to gain by blessing a portion of President Joe Bidens spending plans,
when an ungodly amount of money is going to
go out the door regardless of whether they vote
for a chunk of it or not.
The conventional wisdom is that the Senate
has to prove that it can work, and the test of its
functioning is how much of Bidens spending
Republicans endorse.
This is a distorted view of the Senates role,
which shouldnt be to get on board a historic
spending spree for which Biden won no mandate and which isnt justified by conditions in
the country (its not true, for instance, that the
nations infrastructure is crumbling).
Besides, if bipartisan spending is the test,
the Senate just a few weeks ago passed a $200
billion China competition bill by a 68-32 vote.
It used to be that $200 billion constituted a lot
of money, but now it doesnt rate, not when
theres $6 trillion on the table.
The infrastructure deal lurched from gloriously alive to dead when Biden explicitly
linked its passage to the simultaneous passage
of a reconciliation bill with the rest of the
Democratic Partys spending priorities in it.
Then, it revived again when Biden walked
this back, and promised a dual track for the
two bills.
The fierce Republican insistence on these
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
two tracks doesnt make much sense and
amounts to asking Democrats to allow a decent
interval before going ahead with the rest of
their spending — Democrats are going to try to
pass a reconciliation whether the bipartisan
deal passes or not.
In other words, at the end of the day, theres
only one track.
The calculation of Republicans supporting
the deal is that a significant bipartisan package can take some of the heat off of Sens. Joe
Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema in their resistance to eliminating the filibuster.
A deal that passes and is signed into law
will certainly be a feather in their caps, but
its hard to believe theyd change their minds
on the filibuster if the deal fell apart.
They are both so extensively and adamantly on the record in favor of the filibuster that a
climb-down would be politically embarrassing
and perilous.
Republicans supporting the deal also think
that it will make passing the subsequent reconciliation bill harder. First, the parts of infrastructure that have the widest support — roads
and bridges — will be in the deal and not in the
reconciliation bill. Second, the unwelcome tax
increases excluded from the bipartisan deal
will be in the reconciliation bill.
This isnt a crazy calculation, although
its not clearly correct either. The higher
the top-line number is for the reconciliation
bill, the harder it will be to pass. By allowing Democrats to cleave off some spending
into a bipartisan deal, the overall number for
the reconciliation bill gets smaller. In other
words, the bipartisan deal could make the
partisan reconciliation easier, rather than
harder, to pass.
Its not as though Biden is fiscally prudent
on all other fronts except in this one area,
which he considers a particularly important national investment with unmistakable
returns. No, hes universally profligate. His
reckless spending on all fronts (except defense)
makes it more imperative for Republicans to
stake out a position in four-square opposition.
The bipartisan deal is hardly exemplary legislation, by the way. It resorts to all the usual
Beltway gimmicks to create the pretense that
its paid for, when its basically as irresponsible as the rest of the Biden spending.

HISTORY
Break time – Embarked on a 5 day mystery bus tour 20 years ago…Homeowner claims new
Lately, Ive been thinking, dont
diggers and quilters deserve a
break now and then. Well, thats
exactly what Kay and I decided
to do. As a matter of fact we just
returned from a 5-day Mystery bus
trip with Heritage Tours out of
Yoder, Ks. For the next few weeks
columns, I want to share our exciting and wonderful trip with you.
On Friday June 25 at 1 p.m., we
departed Garnett on our way to our
motel in South Hutchinson for the
night before leaving on our tour
Saturday morning.
Thunderstorms
completely
surrounded us, but we only drove
thru one small shower between
Burlington and Yates Center. There
were acres and acres of wheat not
cut because of such wet fields. We
stopped in El Dorado for a short
break before driving on to the
Rodeway Inn Motel. There we met
our good friends Lloyd and Mari
Kay Bures from the Richmond
area. At 6:30 we all walked across
the street to McDonalds for a bite
to eat before retiring for the night.
Saturday June 26 our tour began.
Up at 5 a.m., breakfast at 6:00, drove

to Yoder and arrived at 6:50 and
boarded our bus at 7:00 and were
rolling at 7:25.
There were 47 of us counting
our tour guide and bus driver. I
soon saw a sign saying Wheat $5.87
per bushel. We passed Nickerson
Farms with all its exotic animals.
We stopped in Sterling, Ks and
picked up a passenger. Our next
stop was in Great Bend, Ks. at WalMart to picked up four more passengers.
West of Great Bend we saw lots
of wheat down and so much water
in the fields. In Hays, Ks. at 9:55
Wal-Mart we stopped for a 30 minute rest stop and also picked up 3
more personnel.

The issues apparently came
to a head at the June 23 school
board budget meeting when
members considered a hiring
slate provided by the administration for extra duty coaching assignments for next school
year including ACHS baseball
coach Travis Persinger. The
board split twice in a 3-3 tie over
approving Persingers assignment.
Minutes of the boards July
1 meeting reflect those athletic
supplemental duty assignments
were approved by a 5-0 vote
with an abstention by Martin.
Denny did not attend the meeting.
Kansas law requires school
districts to post a notice of a
board vacancy and authorizes the board to make that
appointment after 15 days from
We were soon in the limestone post country. We passed
thru Plainville, Stockton, Glade,
Phillsburg (Kansas largest rodeo
held here) and soon crossed the
Nebraska state line at 11:45 a.m.
Oh my they need rain. Irrigating
in almost every field. Stopped
in Holdredge, Nebraska at the
Nebraska Prarie Museum for
lunch and tour. Really great!
At 2 p.m. we were again on our
way. Hay, hay, hay everywhere
you look was hay and irrigation.
Our next stop was at the Buffalo
Bill Trading Post in North Platte,
Nebraska .
Changed our watches to
Mountain time before arriving
at our motel the American Inn in
Ogallala, Nebraska for our first
nights stay.
We went to the Front Street Bar

high school students.

State officials announced
Friday the closing of
Garnetts service office
for the Kansas Social and
Rehabilitation Services as
part of a statewide 10-office
shutdown designed to

Local SRS office director
Susie Grimes confirmed the

Bill Dick, Feuerborn said the
project, particularly the last of
dust control on the makeshift
road behind her house leading
to it, had made such a mess
it had denigrated the value of
her home to the point she now
wanted to move.
40 years ago…
Drought and freeze plagued
croplands and spiraling
interest rates have brought
Anderson County economic
recovery to a painful standstill.
Business activity in almost
every sector of the county
is down, bringing reduced
retail sales, fewer bank
loans, and one of the highest
unemployment rates in a 10
county area. According to
Duane Strickler, area extension economist for the Farm
Management Association,
sluggish economic condition are chiefly the result
of a drought stricken farm
economy. According to
Association records, in
1980 the average Anderson
County farmer spent $102 for
each $100 that he got back, and
crop value per acre equaled
crop production cost.

Legion prepared for a big
Fourth of July demonstration, and in order to play safe,
the boys paid an insurance
company $200 to insure them

being $2,000. It rained and it is
said they got their insurance
money.

We know that because
Americans savings soared last
year; between March 2020 and
April of this year, the savings
rate was nearly 19%, the highest for a prolonged period since
World War II.
By the end of last year,
cooped-up Americans had
stockpiled enormous excess
cash; Wall Street strategist
James Paulsen predicted last
fall that, More than $2.5 trillion of sidelined savings is the
fuel for a growth bomb waiting
to explode. And explode it did,
as soon as it was safe to do so.
Meanwhile, tucked into
Bidens rescue plan was a
serious speedbump for hiring:
extension of the extra $300
weekly unemployment payments that, combined with
other relief outlays, paid people
more to stay home than return
to work. A study by Steve Moore
and associates found that, In
many states, a family of four
two unemployed adults with
two children can qualify for
benefits (on an annual basis)
that will reach over $100,000.
This was a mistake, and has
slowed job growth. Every business group points to a shortage
of labor; hiring picked up in
June, but it is definitely running behind where it should be.
Meanwhile, inflation is
accelerating, fueled in part by
the gusher of money coming
from Bidens ARP and by the
Federal Reserves uber-loose
monetary policy. General Mills
last week said it was seeing
inflation of 7%; such increases are beginning to alarm consumers.
Bidens economic mischief
is just beginning. Just wait
until Democrats ram through
the giant tax increases needed
to pay for his $6 trillion reconciliation bill. That will dumb
down the recovery even more.
Ronald Reagan took office
in 1981 after a decade of high
unemployment, low growth
and damaging inflation, and
almost immediately cut taxes
on individuals and on businesses. Under Reagan, the growth
of federal government spending fell from 4% during Jimmy
Carters tenure to 2.5%. During
his presidency the inflation
rate tumbled to 4.1% from
13.5%, real growth averaged
3.6%, and real median family
income increased.
Reagan lightened the regulatory grip on the economy while
Biden wants to insert the feds
into every nook and cranny of
our nations activities. Biden
has called for an all of government effort to root out racism
and to attack climate change,
inviting a mountain of new red
tape. He wants to throttle our
productive energy industries
and outlaw right-to-work laws,
ramming unionization through
any means.
Biden, like most Democrats,
trusts the government more
than private enterprise.
Reagan famously said:
Republicans believe every day
is the Fourth of July but the
Democrats believe every day is
April 15. So true; maybe Biden
will make Tax Day a national
holiday.

little party to make that person
feel special. Face it, we all love
a party especially if theres
cake!
Your business birthday is
an easy excuse to make yourself special for a day and to
make everyone else pay atten-
tion to you. The opportunities
to promote your birthday and
promote yourself to existing
customers and possible new
ones abound:
Offer a percent-off discount
for the number of years you
are old, or some derivative
thereof; you can make it for
existing customers to help
reward them;
Throw a cocktail party or
after hours event and invite
VIP customers;
Have a birthday breakfast at your location and be
sure to promote it in advance
with in-store signage, flyers,
and your Facebook, email, TV,
radio and newspaper ads;
Use the opportunity to talk
about your history how your
business was founded, your
amazing success stories, interesting trivia, etc.;
Remember, if youre going
to have an open house type
event, its got to be interesting to visitors. A tour through
your barbershop will look like
any other barbershop; but if
you have a barbershop quartet
performance now thats different;
Entertainment can be
cheap and effective at the same
time. Dont forget your local
high school has bands, drama
classes, chorale groups, FFA
meat judging teams all kinds
of talent that will bring in a
crowd if you give them a venue
in which to perform;
Have vendor reps come in
to promote your product with
info, seminars and samples;
Have a birthday cookout
with free food if the weathers
good.
Let your birthday work for
you and help you sell stuff!

AAA: Why your hotel stay may
look different this summer
Whether it's to visit family and friends or to escape to
a scenic national park with
plenty of room for social distancing, travelers are exploring America this summer.
And, along the way, hotel stays
are often looking very different than prior to the pandemic, according to AAA Travel
Advisors.
Since the pandemic, hotels
have taken extra precautions
and implemented many new
safety protocols, said Matt
Bert, AAA Kansas Travel
Advisor. Knowing what
to expect when you stay at a
hotel this summer will be key
to maintaining your peace of
mind as you decide to return to
travel."
AAA,
which
recently
announced the Inspected
Clean enhancement to its
Diamond Program, has also
developed an additional new
resource, AAA Presents: Put
Your Worries to Rest, to offer
a first-hand look at what travelers can expect from check-in to
check-out. Once tried-and-true
expectations of travel have
shifted, especially when booking a hotel stay, all in the name
of keeping guests and employees safe.
For instance, AAAs preferred partner, Best Western
Hotels & Resorts, has imple-
mented the We Care CleanSM
program to address cleanliness
and safety protocols. The program guides everything from
the guest rooms to the common
areas under the guidance of
the Centers for Disease Control
(CDC), Occupational Safety
and Health Administration
(OSHA), and the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA). The
streamlined cleaning processes minimize contact between
guests and hotel employees
while maintaining a high level
of service.
Here are hotel enhancements travelers may
encounter
New Check-In and Cleaning
Processes are the Norms
Technology at many hotels
is helping to keep the guest
experience as seamless as possible. With many hotel chains
adopting mobile check-in,
some guests can bypass the
front desk altogether and go
straight to their room, using
their phone to unlock the room
door. Hotel employees across
the country, ranging from
the front desk staff to housekeeping, have also undergone
special training to make sure
they're familiar with new processes. The guidance includes
wearing personal protective
equipment, sanitizing work
areas, and enacting frequent
and stringent personal safety
measures.
AAA Diamond Hotels are
Inspected Clean
AAA recently announced
its latest enhancement to the
Diamond Program: Inspected
Clean to better meet the needs
and expectations of todays
travelers. According to AAA
research, 76% of consumers
surveyed would be disappointed if a third-party inspection
did not evaluate whether
high-touch areas in a hotel are
sanitized. As a result, AAA is
enhancing its housekeeping
evaluation to include objective, scientific validation of the
cleanliness of common surfaces throughout hotels. Hotels
that meet AAA's standards
for cleanliness, condition, and
this new surface cleanliness
testing will now be recognized
as Inspected Clean and then
assigned a Diamond designation.
The Key to Planning Your
Hotel Stay
One trend has become
clear as hotels resume operationsthe need for advanced
planning. With pent-up travel
demand and hotel rooms being
pulled out of service for deep
cleaning after a guest stays,
availability could quickly
become challenging. According
to a recent AAA summer travel
poll, 61% of Kansans already
have plans, causing hotels to
be far more occupied than last
summer.
Advanced planning is
more important this year, as
we anticipate that people will
need to make reservations that
perhaps they had not considered before, said AAA Kansas
Bert. That includes amusement parks, restaurants and
checking hotels to ensure what
to expect at their facilities so
that you have a memorable and
enjoyable trip.
AAA offers the following tips
when booking a hotel for a
summer vacation:
Book early and be flexible
with your travel dates.
Use a trusted travel agent.
Booking through a travel agent
gives you peace of mind that
the agent will advocate on your
behalf, getting you the information you need and facilitating any future changes or cancellations. When booking new
travel, consumers should ask
about cancellation, rebooking,
and refund policies.
Take advantage of hotel discounts with your AAA members.
Contact your hotel of choice
and review their cleaning protocols.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, July 13, 2021
TAXES…
FROM PAGE 1
were hit with the largest tax
increase in state history in
2017, and taxes increased again
in 2018 and 2019.
Each of the states five largest counties had net losses due
to people voting with their
feet to move elsewhere in the
United States, contradicting
the notion that out-migration
largely affects rural areas.
Johnson County gained $306
million in 2013 and 2014 but
has since lost $309 million.
Three of the last five years
show losses, and 2019 was barely positive.
Sedgwick County suffered
serious losses every year since
2013, which total $728 million.
Shawnee County lost $282 million and also lost AGI each
year. Wyandotte County had
a net loss of $172 million and
Douglas County lost $63 million.
This out-migration of
income is bad news for the jobs
picture in Kansas. People leaving for better job opportunities
or lower taxes makes it more
difficult for employers to find
skilled and professional labor,
and too much of that prompts
businesses to look for opportunities in other states.
Instead of bold action to stop
the bleeding, state and local
government officials mostly
keep doing the same things
that havent worked in the past.
The states official economic
growth plan the Framework
for Growth is mostly more
government spending and
handouts to attract new business.
The Tax Foundation recently said Kansas has the worst
effective tax rates in the nation
on mature businesses, and
subsidies going to new businesses are part of the reason.
Academic studies on two subsidy programs PEAK and
STAR Bonds showed both
programs to be, at best, ineffective. But even if one of the
handout programs showed a
little benefit, it makes no sense
to shower millions of dollars
on a few businesses while families and businesses take billions out the back door to other
states.

AAA busts vehicle maintenance myths
As many Kansans prepare to
take their long awaited Great
American Road Trip this summer, AAA wants to offer some
peace of mind before pulling
out of the driveway by debunking some common auto maintenance myths.
AAA Vehicle Maintenance
Myth Busters
Myth
#1 Oil should be changed
every 3,000 miles
Fact
Cars that are 15 years or
newer typically need oil changes at intervals of 5,000 to 7,500
miles. Opting for synthetic oil
can extend this even longer.
Myth
#2 Car batteries last for 5
years
Fact
The life of a car battery varies & depends on the type of
vehicle, driver habits and climate. A car battery can last
anywhere from 3 5 years.
Myth
#3 Car warranties are voided when work is done by anyone other than the dealer
Fact
The law prohibits manufacturers or dealers to void a
warranty or deny coverage just
because someone else did the
work.
Myth
#4 Brake fluid doesnt need
to be changed
Fact
Brake fluid should be
changed at two- or three-year
intervals, especially since
it attracts & absorbs water,
which can corrode internal
brake system parts & lead to
failure or other costly damage.
Myth
#5 Tires should be replaced
when the tread reaches 2/32
Fact
AAA research found tire
performance in wet weather
deteriorates significantly at
4/32 & therefore, recommends
consumers buy new tires when
they reach this tread depth.
Over the course of the summer, AAA anticipates responding to more than 28,000 calls
for roadside assistance in
Kansas, said Shawn Steward,
spokesman for AAA Kansas.
And while AAA will be at the
ready to serve members, no one
wants their road trip ruined by
a breakdown that could have
been avoided.
In an effort to ensure cars
are road-ready, travelers are
advised to have their vehicles inspected by a trusted
repair shop, such as an AAA
Approved Auto Repair facility,
before any long road trip. AAA
Kansas recommends focusing
on key components like your
battery, tires, engine and fluids.
Dead batteries, flat tires and
lockouts will be the leading reasons AAA members will experience car trouble this summer,
said Jon Burgett, emergency
roadside service fleet supervisor with AAA Kansas. Also,
check that engine oil, coolant
and brake, transmission and
power steering fluids are at the
manufacturer specified levels.
AAA Recommends
Following manufacturers
schedule – your owners manual and often offers variations
based on driving habits. Make
sure to stick to the one that
most closely matches your
individual situation.
Listening to the experts while you may be tempted to
prolong maintenance to save
money, by doing so you could
end up with more costly repairs
down the road.
Having your battery tested car batteries are a little trickier
as they will give little warning
when they are about to die. A
simple battery test will provide
all the information you need
to decide if its time to replace.
Through its mobile battery pro-
gram, AAA offers its members
free testing of a vehicles battery and electrical system. The
best part is that if you need
your battery replaced, AAA
can do so right on the spot.
Documenting work – consumers can have the recommended maintenance services
or repairs performed at any
facility of their choice. Simply
document the work that is
done by someone other than
the manufacturer or dealer to
maintain the warranty.
Great American Road Trip
As Americans begin their
Great American Road Trips
this summer, AAA is here and
ready to help. Weve compiled
our favorite trip-planning
resources, backed by more than
100 years of road-tested experience and expertise. AAA.com/
RoadTrip is a free resource to
help travelers find inspiration,
explore destinations, plan the
perfect route and get their vehicle road trip ready.
Regardless of how you plan
to get to your destination, AAA
advises travelers to consult
with a knowledgeable travel
advisor to help plan their trips.

My hunting trip
A mousy situation
By Wyatt Dickerson
6th Grade, Crest
Mr. Zimmerman
By Darrel Glen
6th Grade, Central Plains
Mrs. Kauffman
The first day I sepnt 8 hours in a blind. We saw a
doe but it did not stop for a shot on it.
The next day my Grandpa took me hunting for
about an hour and a half. Then when we started to
leave, there it was.
It was about a six point deer. I moved my foot to
plant it. The deer ran a little bit and then it stopped.
While I was about to take it off safety, the deer took
off.
Next day, I went for a little bit before school and
about 7:30 I shot a buck.
The funny thng was, right afterwards a huge 8
point buck ran by and I was mad.
Very quietly, Dick and Dan, two little
brown mice sneaked upon the kings dining
table.
They smiled as they hungrily nibbled at
a block of cheese.
They had just started eating when the
queen opened the big door and walked over
to the table to see if her servants had finished setting the table.
Dick and Dan sneaked behind a platter
of pork, exchanging worried glances. The
king soon followeed the queen. Soon they
sat down to eat. The king reached for the
pork and lifted it up. The queen screamed
and arose from her chair as Dick and Dan
ran to the other end of the table and prepared to leap.

The king roared, Catch them! He too,
arose and drew a sword. He slashed at the
mice but they werent there.
Dick and Dan ran for their lives to a
small hole in the wall. The king was furious
about missing the mice. he was even more
furious when he realized he had dumped
out the last of their wine.
Dick and Dan peered out of their hole
to see what they were doing. The king was
shaking his head and the queen was still
chalk white.
The king said he wasnt going to deal
with such a mousy situation. The two mice
snickered when the queen said she wasnt
hungry and when the king stomped away to
count his money to see if it would cool his
anger.
Dick and Dan looked at each other shaking with silent laughter, were they really a
mousy situation? The End.

One of the hardest parts
about making a new life in
Kansas for me has been missing so much of my old life in
Wisconsin. In my early years
as a Kansan, I longed for things
here to feel more like home.
Over time my appreciation for
Kansas has grown, and it has
begun to feel like home to me.
I didnt realize until recently
that the trade-off for this connection and comfort to my new
home state was made possible
by drifting further from my old
one.
Since I left for college more
than 15 years ago, I always
managed to make a handful
of trips home each year. With
COVID, my visits were limited,
and the time between felt somehow longer.
Over the Fourth of July holiday, I returned to my childhood
home for a visit. As I drove
into town around midnight, I
felt tired from the 12-hour trek,
but I kept blinking my eyes
because everything seemed
strange.
Things felt smaller the
buildings, the distance between
streets. Trees and other vegetation seemed bigger, like they
were swallowing up the road.
The pavement seemed to be
faded and cracked in a way
I had never noticed before.
Barns and sheds I swear were
in good shape the last time I
drove by are falling down.
For a few days, it was like
having a surreal dream in
which I knew the places, people and sites around me but
they were all somehow slightly
foreign to me.
On my trip home, I was
thinking about why things had
felt so different and a light bulb
went off in my head. The place
where I grew up was no longer
mine.
The nostalgia of our childhoods is powerful. These places
grew us, and it can be devastating to lose the physical
connection to them. A person
can know that the home of a
long-gone, beloved relative has
been demolished and still have
their heart skip a beat when
they see the reality replacing
the faded memory. Alumni can
be aware of a school merger
changing the name, mascots
and colors but not realize how
bizarre it will feel to see a new
team playing on the same field
they once occupied.
It was a bittersweet recognition I am an outsider in my
hometown. My parents home
will always be my childhood
home, but it is no longer my
home. The town is full of people and places that evoke fond

memories and have a special
place in my heart, but I am no
longer a part of their community.
When we no longer own
these places, it can be hard for
our hearts to let go because
there was too much life played
out in these spaces.
My realization actually gave
me comfort because it reminded me how fortunate I am to
have found a new home that I
love. Letting my mental allegiance shift from my childhood
hometown to my forever hometown has create the room in my
life to make a full commitment
to the life I am living here in
Kansas.
To make the most of my new
home, I am going to do my
best to be present and cherish
everyday moments with people
that make me feel at home.
Take pictures of the special
things I want to remember for
years to come. And depart your
everyday places with a grateful
heart because it could be your
last visit, and there really is no
place like home.
