Opinion: Winthrop man upset with salt purchasing directive

To the Editor:

Nice job legislatures.

Now I know whose side you are on, maybe you should get paid in Yen, Canada money and even pay the taxes that we lose when we purchase offshore?

Remember “Buy American, the job you save may be your own?

Every job outsourced reduces the tax revenue in the US and NYS. Do those foreign salt workers pay into our Social Security fund, school tax, county tax (that pays your wages) etc.

Are they delivering the salt directly to our highway?

Is English your 2nd language?

Bah humbug.
