Seems so. Things are changing due to the pandemic as far as waking up to the nonsense. It is making normal thinkers realize what kind of dictatorship we have running this state. There is a reason so many are leaving. PA ranks 49 out of 50 for people leaving. Not very impressive, but not surprising how we are treated here. Tax wise PA sucks as well. We get hammered on every front.

Fetterman is one of those nice guys that is likable, but his policies are horrible. He should stay out of politics and just help at risk kids. Of course there is no money in helping kids. Hope he moves out of politics as he is a disaster.

This article states it will be in Mason Co, WV which is nowhere near the Pittsburgh region. However it also states a smaller second facility would be built in Weirton, WV so that at least is good for our region. Overall though, this was PA's to lose, which they did.

To quote another poster, "nice deflection"


If you don't care what I have to say, you know you can ignore me, right?

Also the job market is absolutely awful in Arkansas and easily one of the worst in the USA.

Son, it doesn't matter WHO controls either house of the legislature if the Governor abuses emergency management laws to sideline the legislature and crown himself King while ruling by executive decree and having his rear covered by his fellow partisans on the state's Supreme Court. This state's monarchy only ended because of constitutional amendments - that His Majesty tried to use outright malfeasance to have defeated.

What on earth does any of that have to do with US Steel cancelling their plans?

Bingo…and I especially loved how he shut it down, folks went to neighboring states to make purchases, PA lost huge revenue, and then he wants to raise taxes. Sheer genius, lol.
