Pennsylvania had a surplus under Gov. Ridge. The first thing Rendell did when he got in office was raise the income tax rate. We rewarded him for that by reelecting him in a landslide. Why shouldn't he go for broke and raise the sales tax, gas tax and anything else he can? The stupid voters in Pa gave him a mandate. By the way, our local newspaper refers to these taxes as "fees". I guess that's supposed to make them more painless...
All those people in Pennsyltucky should bow to Fast Eddie and thank him because he gave them what they voted for...and then elect John Street as the next gubner.
