I'm not too pleased with Josh Kanter's op-ed "Defining charity: the LDS Church and Carl Wimmer" (Opinion, April 9). OK, it does bring up some good points, like the fact that the policies of state Rep. Wimmer, R-Herriman, and the Republican Party are hypocritical and inconsistent.

But the solution this article offers, which is nothing more really than "vote Democrat," is unsatisfactory.

Why? Because the Democrats work so hard at caving in to so much that the plutocratic Republicans want that in the end they don't really represent us at all.

They are just a party of lesser evil, and I'm tired of the lesser evil. I want something good.

The solution isn't the Democrats. The solution is getting rid of both the Republicans and the Democrats.
