But the former gov did that as a little going away gift after he lost the election and the GOP signed right off on.  PA has the worst gas taxes in the country.

Yeah, the whole practice of law-bombing your successor if they're part of the "other team" is pretty awful, but I don't really know how you'd go about fixing it.

That governor screwed over the next one by jacking up gas taxes before leaving so it seems to be on the successor. Obama did that departmental intelligence sharing thing right before he left office which led to all the leaks. Trump will almost certainly do something awful right before he exits office, too.

Back on the topic of taxes, though.. I am of the mind that they need to vastly simplify the tax system anyway. Something like a flat 15% income tax (regardless of the source), 10% to Federal, 4% to State, 1% to Local. Done. Nothing else. No deductions, no loopholes, no property tax, no gas tax. Just figure a way to make it work within the budget, even if it means large cuts to services.

They keep adding more and more taxes and surcharges, and never less it seems. The first solution to budget shortfalls always seems to be a new tax/surcharge/fee, not cuts.
