“It’s only going to pay for all of the trash driver’s wages and for the truck’s gas which we already are taxed for.”
William Dougherty,
Ritner Street
“Not happy. About three years ago I bought a house. They should raise the alcohol tax more, but that would be the last thing.”
Michael Haines,
Seventh and Porter streets
“Bad idea. They shouldn’t do it. They shouldn’t raise taxes when the economy is down.”
Mario Saulino,
12th Street and Snyder Avenue
“None of it makes any sense. They are going to raise taxes until they run out of things to tax. Everyone is already paying high taxes.”
Eve Tinsley,
McKean and Dorrance streets
