Because I get email from things like the "Pennsylvania Tyrrany Response Team," yes, I was aware of this.
Even wrote to my state house reps about it.
The deal is this ... Phila and Pittsburgh need bailing out for a number of reasons ... particularly revisions to the school systems, upgrading of equipment, addition of new programs and so on.
That's what the increase is paying for, as well as to make up for the shortfall that Street caused by reducing the City Wage Tax.
This was also in one of those flyers from your state senator and representative that you throw out without reading ... usually detailing by school district what programs in that district would benefit, which for my section of Montgomery County was "NONE - NONE - NONE - NONE"
The whole of the state is being forced to support the urban areas.
Again.
