Councilwoman Schaefer Promises Delco Tax Hike — Delaware County (Pa.) Councilwoman Elaine Paul Schaefer promised her constituents a tax hike, last night, Nov. 20.
“I think my colleagues and our staff . . . recognize there is a budget deficit and we share in that concern and we’ve been working very hard with laser focus on trying to address it and minimizing the amount of tax increase that we will be forced to put in to address it,” she said.
She was addressing a concern expressed by Media GOP Chairman Michael Straw.
Delco has a $54 million budget deficit due to idiocy leading to avoidable lawsuits and starting expensive projects that sound really neat but end up being money-pits whose only use is to create government jobs.
Expect that “minimizing” means really, really big tax hike.
Maybe we can get Elon Musk to come in and cut the fat. Then vote out the Democrat spenders and replace with Republican conservatives. After all they admitted Republicans didn’t raise taxes for twelve years. Sounds very logical to me.
