It sucks to be a city worker in Scranton. What will Obama do? Tax the rich Pennsylvanians?

When they succeed, there is this rock I’d like to give these workers. Perhaps they can get the water out of it...

What will Obama do?

Isn't Biden "from" Scranton? Send him to "help".

In the real world, Dunder Mifflin would be closing their Scranton office.

The Mayor wants to raise taxes, the City Council wants to borrow more money. Does it occur to no one to fire some workers?

[4yearlurker]

So let their paychecks bounce. Maybe the Union nitwits will get a clue.

The council wants to borrow the $$ to pay for operating expenses...who knew Scranton had such a large Greek population?

Local governments with federal funding: gangs of lowest, filthiest robber-parasites on the planet, all dressed up with the money that they stole from you under threat of violence and further robberies.

They can force the city to issue checks, but if the banks refuse to cash them, because of NSF’s, nothing has been gained.
