We will enter that arena standing upright, shoulders squared, and ready to fight like hell. Let these so-called Socialists face a people who have been taxed, lectured, and underestimated from Washington to Harrisburg to Allegheny County—and who have finally had enough of the lunacy.

November is right around the corner. Be that person in the arena.

When a judge has to force government to govern, government has already failed.

In a decision that will affect more than a half-million property owners, a judge on Monday ordered Allegheny County to conduct a full property reassessment by 2032. It marks the most significant update of the system in more than a decade, but fails to take the additional step of mandating

THE REAL DEVIL TO PAY

Yes, we have been seeing the post from the Allegheny County Democratic Committee trying to distract everyone from their disaster they have created within the Allegheny County government by attacking the RCAC. There is one very distinct difference: RCAC is not funded by taxpayers. No political committee is (we hope).

Now let's talk about the government players they have constructed to represent us:

For more than 20 years, Democrats have controlled Allegheny County government. Since 2004, every County Executive has been a Democrat, and today Democrats hold all but one seat on County Council (we're even including Alex Rose who claims to be an Independent).

During that time, the County's own pension crisis has grown into a reported $1.4 billion unfunded liability. An independent consultant concluded the pension is only about 40% funded, warned it could become insolvent by 2043 without corrective action, and estimated that the County would need approximately $100 million in additional annual funding for the next 20 years to restore the plan's long-term health.

This wasn't caused by one budget or one administration. It was the result of years of deferred decisions, inadequate funding, and failed oversight—and probably would have been ignored further if it wasn't for DA Zappala.

So before lecturing Republicans about the finances of a political committee, perhaps explain the finances of the government your party has led for two decades.

Campaign committees spend campaign dollars.

County government spends taxpayer dollars.

And now the bill has come due (actually overdue).

So here we are again—debating higher taxes, property reassessments, and other ways to ask taxpayers to absorb the cost of years of deferred decisions instead of demanding accountability for how we got here in the first place.

Perhaps maybe it's time to stop voting for Democrats and Socialists all together.

Until recently, the Allegheny County pension crisis was a chronic but subterranean concern — something politicos and government experts were familiar...
