Yeah . . . go get those “Shylocks”! After all, raising taxes on companies, making them close down, is “basic fairness”.

I don’t know which one I’m going to miss more in 2017. The Kenyan or his dumbass sidekick, Gabby Biden.

You’d think people in Iowa would have seen enough bullsh*t already to know.

Don’t laugh. That same approach is about to get Tom Wolf elected Governor of Pennsylvania.

According to whom?

If the Pennsyljerseyans do pull that one off, they’ll be screaming with regret as rapidly as New Yorkers have over De Blasio.

Latest polling has Wolf up more than 20 points.

He is running around promising to slap an extraction tax on the shale drillers, to “fully fund” public education.

School boards who spend like drunken sailors keep raising property taxes, and then pointing the finger of blame towards Harrisburg for not “fully funding” them.

And the majority of voters appear gullible enough to believe that. They appear to blame Tom Corbett for their rising property taxes because he won’t tax the EEEEEEVIL corporations in order to “fully fund” their schools.

New York will be a best-case scenario if this winds up where it is heading.
