PA Gov. Tom Corbett Signs Voter ID Bill
Pennsylvania now has one of the toughest voter ID laws in the country.
"I am signing this bill because it protects a sacred principle, one shared by every citizen of this nation. That principle is: one person, one vote,'' Corbett said after signing the bill at 6 p.m. Wednesday, shortly after the state House passed it. "It sets a simple and clear standard to protect the integrity of our elections.''
The law goes into effect immediately, but the photo ID will not be required for the primary election next month. Voters will need a photo ID for November's general election.
Let's see how quickly Obama Attorney General Eric Holder pounces on the Keystone State's efforts to prevent voter fraud, which is the mainstay of the Democratic Party.

Columnist: Your doctor could be Obama
Hentoff writes: "Starting in July 2014, if Barack Obama is still president, a 15-member board that he selects with Senate confirmation -- the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB) -- will be in charge of deciding when to reduce government spending per capita (for each person) on health care."
In other words, Obama will install a rationing board to decide who gets health care ... and who is allowed to die.
As of July 2014, your doctor could be Obama

PA State Rep. Seth Grove Unveils Property Tax Elimination Plan
Rather than a one-size-fits-all solution, Grove’s House Bill 2230 proposes to allow counties, through voter referendum, to enact a 1 percent county-level sales tax to reduce school property tax millage rates.Read more at the link below:
The legislation would also allow local taxing authorities to levy a local income tax, with the option of a Personal Income Tax (PIT) or an Earned Income Tax (EIT). The revenue collected would offset a reduction in property taxes by at least 30 percent, depending on the tax rate. Local taxing authorities could opt to completely eliminate property taxes under the plan.
Grove’s proposal includes inflationary guidelines on tax increases for municipalities, public school districts and counties, which would be compelled to freeze property taxes if they opt to enact a tax shift. School districts would be subject to Act 1 inflationary index requirements and exceptions.
