Under the Radar...

Ah, smell that? It's more local HopenChange...

Only 1 hearing planned in Boston on governor's plan to raise Registry of Motor Vehicles fees
BOSTON - The Patrick administration is planning a single public hearing in Boston to air plans for raising 30 different types of fees charged by the Registry of Motor Vehicles.

Mass. Gov. Deval L. Patrick wants to increase the fees to help pay for operation of transportation agencies and to pay debt for building roads and bridges.

How's that go again? Oh yeah. BOHICA (Bend Over, Here It Comes Again). This is on top of the 19 cent/gallon gas tax increase as well as the proposed 1% increase in sales tax (which they have proposed as, and I am not making this up, "only a penny"...).

Obviously, Governor Escalade needs another six figure job for a political hack...

That is all.

Meh. More slimeball Patrick shit. Ugh. I was wondering out loud the other day how that moron even ended up getting elected when he's so thoroughly loathed across the board... Then I was reminded who the incompetent twit was running against him. I swear it was a choice between Slimy & Stupid or Slimier & Stupider. *shudder*

Sales tax increase is 20%, class. I remember when it was billed as the temporary tax -- it started at 3%. True, it was only temporarily at 3% until they raised it 66.67% to 5!

Let's use the percentage difference, the pols would have you swallow the "penny" BS.

Can't say as I blame him....after all, he can look back at those same people continuing to re-elect that worthless POS Ted Kennedy over and over and he HAS to assume that he can do anything he wishes.

Even kill someone.....
