It took a while, but he's finally paid for his crime against Easter baskets.

Pennsylvania isn't that strict, I've driven some real shitheaps in my life and never had them failed for rust.

It's this, people are insanely lazy about taking care of their things. Cars are expensive, take care of them.

Altoona's so empty that Sheetz built their Technology & Innovation Center in Pittsburgh because they couldn't get young people to move to Altoona at any price.

I hate it when my school board steels money.

It sounds to me like you are bias, sir.

A significant proportion of Pennsylvania's population saw their first paycheck at age 16 had deductions taken out, and have been mad ever since.

> This seems like the first step in proposing a government run program.

 
Do you have some sort of objection to a government-run program?

"Half of all Americans are too poor to pay federal taxes" is not the glowing endorsement of our tax system that you think it is.

Teachers get paid garbage in this state and have to put up with the worst people constantly yelling at them.

This is the second post in three days about how a city in Pennsylvania can find prosperity by cutting taxes. Makes you think.

It's an "abandoned" car wash, not an "abandon" car wash.

The difference between what I paid and the assessment is about $905 in property taxes. My wife and I pay about $5500 a year in local EIT. The city's getting theirs.

They can reassess my house if they're that worried about it, the 3% EIT they're getting out of my wife and I is multiple times the difference they'd get if they reassessed my house to what I paid for it.

Yes, everyone knows that Gen X suck real bad.

Maybe Dawson and people like her are correct about what a shithole this nation is.

Upper Darby? I barely know her!!

If you were born in 1983, you're a Millennial. Grats.

The house has been sold twice since the last assessment. As far as I can tell the city / school district only reassess in hot neighborhoods.

 
The city and school district get 3% of our gross income so I'm not going to feel too bad about the low house assessment.

I live in the city. At no point in time was there ever a full lockdown. They even kept the liquor stores open. Everything was "essential."

 
Being forced to get takeout instead of eating in the dining room is not a "lockdown," no matter how much idiots claim it was.

His brother was involved in the Cash For Kids shit out in eastern PA a while back.

Nobody lives in Cranberry Township. There are fewer than 31k people there, less than 200K in all of Butler County.
 
Low taxes in Cranberry aren't sustainable. Eventually the local authority will have to raise taxes to match the service levels that people there expect, and those people will leave and move to the next cheap suburb where they can pay artificially low taxes. Same as it ever was.

Lumber companies did the same shit in the 1850s. Oil companies did the same shit in the 1890s. Coal companies did the same shit for the past two hundred years.

 
We never learn.

I'm not mad at them, Allegheny County is better off without them.

Not sure what's broken? My shit hasn't been reassessed in forever and is assessed at less than half what I paid. I think my taxes are ~$950 a year all in.
 
To be honest, anyone who moves to Butler County because they're mad about their tax bill deserves to live there.
