State Sen. Scott Wagner (R-28) notes that the budget vetoed, June 30, by Gov. Wolf provided for structural reform to the pension system, which is the primary cost driver for the state government and school districts and contained significant increases to education across the board.
It also did not raise taxes.
So why did Wolf veto it? It disadvantaged the special interests that are his true constituency.
We hope and pray that Wagner and the rest of the legislature stand by their guns and ignore the stones thrown by the old media which also put the special interests first rather than those who want to live their lives without taking from others.
Wonder if any of the voters who supported Wolf want to take that vote back. He vetoed a budget simply because it didn’t raise taxes…how much clearer can you get as to what his real agenda is and where it will take us! Can’t imagine that he operated his own company like this, so why the turn-around?
It’s pretty simple…a lot of young people want free stuff and they think they’re going to get it by supporting this twit. My son “the idealist” thinks it’s great that someone would pay for his college education…which I already do. As wisdom comes with age, we all know what happens when you get something for “free”…you don’t appreciate it as much as when you’ve earned it AND someone else eventually has to pay for it.
