So, why isn’t Pennsylvania fixing the bridges? Fixing those bridges is the responsibility of the state and local governments and drivers pay taxes on gasoline for that purpose.

All of you without the vision of our overlords here in PA just can’t see the forest through the trees.

This ferris wheel, which the state gladly gave $10M to some company building this $600M thing, will solve all of Pittsburgh’s bridge problems.

People from all over the planet will flock to Pittsburgh to ride this thing. This ferris wheel is the last thing Pittsburgh needs to become a world class city and destination. The tax money raised from the ferris wheel will FINALLY give the state the money it needs to fix the bridges, roads, and other things failing in the state.

Do you doubt the state? You must be racist if you do.

Our state sanctioned casinos have given us significant property tax relief and have fixed our schools according to top minds.

Stadiums, largely funded by over $1B in taxpayer money (1996 dollars) that were built in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia have sparked incredible economic and population growth (in fact, growth was so ridiculous that PA lost an electoral vote!).

Moreover, when the tolls on I-76 and the Johnstown Flood tax are repealed, we will see even more economic growth.

I’m telling you, fixing a bridge or road with that $10M is stupid. More money needs to be spent on ferris wheels. They’re the key to economic prosperity.

I’m going to go back to huffing glue and killing brain cells now ... it helps with my Biden impersonations.
