Taxes on alcohol, tobacco etc wouldnt bother me if they went to useful things. They aren't great for a functioning society, but you can't make them go away. Might as well tax the fuck out of them.

yeah, but then what are we gonna do with excess tax dollars if we don't have politicians that actually use them and use them the right way to benefit the Pennsylvanias who paid in?

Pennsylvania had a $4 billion state tax surplus last year and politicians just sit on their hands with it they don't spend it they don't have any plans to spend it... It's fucking infuriating.

I wish somebody would let us fucking put our hats out and collect off the top of every service and good they use and buy.
