Letters are proof of mealy-mouthitis

Mr. Brown's and Mr. Gunter's letters (Daily Bee, Nov. 21, 2021) address different aspects of the same disease that is afflicting Sandpoint and Bonner County, mealy-mouthitis. No matter the political affiliation, and in spite of the lip service, especially from our mayor and newly minted candidate for governor, our elected officials do not represent the vast majority of us, but the monied interests, aka: developers and whomever contributes to their political positions.

As for anyone who would shell out an average in excess of a $1 million for a two-bedroom shoebox condo at the location of the busiest intersection in town, well, they deserve what they get if they are stupid enough to buy one. Of course who knows, maybe they're sound-proofed and have VR projections instead of windows.
