Philly taxes and car insurance almost put my into bankruptcy .. lol
One of our best friends grew up there and still has most of his family back there.
While serving in the Air Force he met his wife a No. Cali gal. They got married and she told him that she could never live in Philly (re the cold)!
His last 2 trips back to visit his family in Philly have really upset him. He said that about 99.999999999% of Philly is socialist/communist lefties! He told his family that he would pay for their way to come visit, but he was not going back there!
