We're getting more than the shaft, recently the state announced a $2.3Bil deficit in public transportation and roads. A raise in the PA gas tax, already among the top 10 highest in the nation, along with increased fares and service cuts is the suggested solution.

An increase in the price of gas is sure to follow with the heightened emissions standards due to having to use reformulated gas which cuts emissions.

So let's see, an increase in the price of the vehicle, an increase in the base price of the fuel, an increase in the tax on the fuel........ where is my property tax break again?

Ed "the thug" Rendell is flooding the airwaves touting his fiscal responsibility and his increased spending for seniors and schools while the working class gets jammed up again. Come on PA, let's vote for more democrats!!!! There just isn't enough waste and sense of entitlement in this Commonwealth... 'Common' "wealth" how apropos.

"reformulated gas "
Less MPG with that, also.
Would be nice if the 'pubs could make some political hay out of this.
