It's frustrating sometimes to watch government in action. Parkersburg City Council fell into line last evening and approved the Hotel tax increase, what a shock. Lot's of folks think the BIG Oil companies get together and determine the price of gasoline, which is what governments do all the time with taxation.
Parkersburg should consider making their elections non-partisan, at least then Republicans wouldn't be trying to explain to each other why Republicans are unanimously voting to raise our taxes. Don't forget these folks when they run for higher office later, as many of them have high hopes and plans to equal their high opinions of themselves. If they will do this here, you can bet they will in Charleston or wherever it is they aspire to "serve".
I have been curious for awhile, wondering why these folks would get involved in our local Party election last year and help determine the outcome by a vote. If they thought this would spare them criticism from other Republicans they were sadly mistaken. Some of us still know a RINO when we see one and don't mind pointing them out, before they do us all more damage.
