I support a city-county merger. The fact that he had the balls to pass something as unpopular as the drink tax proves to me that he’ll do what he believes is right instead of pandering to the majority. You think it took balls for that piece of shit to pass that stupid ass drink tax? It would have taken balls for him to tell fuckin PAT to live within their means and to raise their fares. It would have taken balls for him to raise the property tax to pay for that black hole of corruption known as PAT. No, he took the pussy way out. I go out of my way to avoid drinking any alchohol in the county for the reason of that tax. I have been eating out at Butler county restaurants for the most part since he passed that stupid tax. No, the fact that he took the pussies way out proves to me he is just another Rendell. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/mayoral-race/203999)._
