I hear you.

Pennsylvania is a citadel of Progressive Republicans who tax, spend and protect favored business and labor interests.

For the last century, PA has declined to half its once great status as the Keystone State with 36 congressional districts in 1910.

The latest outrage includes a 28 cent a gallon gas tax hike approved by a Republican controlled legislature and governor.

They increased registration fees and traffic fines to get revenue for roads and mass transit. Labor and business pocket the money and give some back to the politicos.

They say they want to reform things like school property taxes but their plan would give the local school boards new tax options like income and sales taxes to reduce the property tax which means they could bait and switch taxes to jack up their take from us and pretend its “reform”.

Have you heard of an old PA politician named Boies Penrose, who died in 1921? He wouldn’t let a Democrat push him around they way the two McCs and Boehner do.
