Outside of the Philadelphia area and within limited areas of some major cities such as Scranton, Pittsburgh and Harrisburg, we also have the crappiest roads in the nation and a need to get around by automobile.

In Soviet Liberal Pennsylvania, Democrats destroy YOU!
(translation, in Democrat areas of Pennsylvania and other Democrat areas, Democrats destroy as much of the U.S.A. as they can).
(not saying everyone in Pennsylvania is a Democrat/Liberal)

Nothing like telling people you’re going to put them out of a job in order to get their vote.

Pennsylvania used to be known as a fracking state due to the drilling activity in the Marcellus shale region.
What has changed in recent years is that PA is now attracting industrial development in industries that rely on access to cheap natural gas.
Shell is nearing completion of a large polyethylene manufacturing plant on the Ohio River just outside of Pittsburgh. I believe this is the largest private capital investment in the history of Pennsylvania.
In recent weeks theres been an announcement that ExxonMobil is looking to construct a similar plant right downriver in Pennsylvania, West Virginia or Ohio. There are strong rumors that an orange-haired public official who lives in a large white house in Washington DC is going to be the keynote speaker at a groundbreaking ceremony for the new project in the weeks leading up to the 2020 election. :-)

Ever notice how the roads in GOP leaning areas always tend to have a lot MORE potholes in this Commonwealth?

Yep the same could be happening in NY. Instead upstate is being depopulated.

A fracking ban may cost them elections (which is all that dems worry about) but it would cost the rest of us much more.
Because of fracking, the United States economy and energy supply are no longer completely dependent upon the whims of Arab dictators. Instead, the U.S. has become a net exporter of oil for the first time in 75 years.

The “working man” should be coming to the realization that the Democrats are no longer the “party of the working man”.
