Reply to Will the cost of a central Pa. thruway reach $1B? PennDOT officials hope not by dissolutewastrel
PennDOT is fundamentally incapable of doing anything other than blowing billions of dollars on highway expansions that ultimately don’t reduce congestion

Reply to Planning on moving to PA, as someone who is LGBTQ+ curious about areas to avoid. by VaginaHotPocket
just like you said, philly, pittsburgh, & allentown will be your best options, but if you want to go to a smaller city because it’s cheaper then definitely all of the lehigh county (allentown, bethlehem, & easton)

Reply to New resident Vehicle questions: registration and PA plates + trusted mechanic for a Subaru by medicallyspecial
A notary public should be able to help you with registration. Be sure to have valid insurance card on hand. Get your windshield replaced BEFORE you take it for inspection. When it is replaced, ask the installer to give you the corner piece with the current sticker on it, so the inspection station can see it b4 they inspect. If it fails inspection due to the damage, you will need it done b4 they can issue the sticker anyway. If it would happen to pass the way it is and they put sticker on it, once you replace the windshield, you only have a specific amount of days to get it re inspected again. Save yourself the fee...

I don’t think any of my family has any plans of leaving soon, we’ve been here since the late 1600’s/Early 1700’s

Maybe we should stop pissing away $160+m per mile on highways to nowhere, I don't know.

A lot of poor people in this thread are carrying water for insanely rich people who use their cross-generational wealth to create a de facto class of nobility. Very cool.

My family has been in PA for over 200 years, but my brother has left the state, I'm looking to follow within the next 5 years, and we're hoping to move our parents (or at least the one who is still currently single, they divorced years ago) out at some point in their lifetime.

The "death taxes" should be 100%, no one should get to be rich because their grandpa was. Fuck 'em.
Cross-generational wealth is poisonous to democracy.

I pay less than $1000/year all in for my house. It's just clickbait bullshit for grandpa to read and screech about on Facebook.

Even if people in Pittsburgh talk that different from the country (which having lived there, I'd argue there isn't much difference), my point is that there is a some distinct differences between west vs east dialects.

Here's another study, also by Wallethub, saying Pennsylvania is middle of the pack for total tax burden.

Just more clickbait bullshit.

Do not get them at Sheetz. Also, you can tell any restaurant (even Primanti’s) no fries.

My family is from eastern pa from the NY, NJ, tri-state tip and I’m moving to western pa north of Pittsburgh. Any advice?

No, just no. Stop bringing these things here and letting them loose. I don't live in Florida for a reason. My dog's breeder is leaving Florida partially due to the heat, and partially due to wanting "gator free waterways."
I lived in Houston for 4 years and in certain parks you didn't want to crash your bike on the trails because gators were nearby.

See that’s where I disagree. One party’s platform involves legislation to help American’s. The other party’s platform is made up culture wars.
One party believes that government should do more to invest in the American people, while the other party doesn’t believe in government.
Trying to equate the two parties is exactly what Fox News wants you to do, because if you focus on policies and congressional voting records, it’s pretty clear which party actually has an interest in working for the American people (which is what we pay them for)
