Thank you for saying this. I'm surprised at the amount of people in this thread, who are apparently from Pennsylvania, that are just dunking on Wilkes-Barre and Luzerne County. The local government being corrupt is not the people's fault, rather it's a product of decades of institutional rot.

I would love for these people to come up here and look around? Visit and see that NEPA is a part of Pennsylvania? I think it's very telling that despite having 550k+ people between Lackawanna and Luzerne County, most people in this thread only recognize WB based on Kids for Cash. Maybe doing something and helping improve the quality of life and reduce corruption in counties like Luzerne would be more helpful than calling everyone there losers.
