Democrats ready to unleash more hardships

They chose to elect a one-party rule to govern this state after I warned many of them what devastation it would bring. Since the Democrats have taken control, people have been paying more and more to feed their corruption and irresponsibility to run city and state government.
You see, there is simply no opposition for debate on basically any of the issues that arise. Parties tend to stick together even when they are wrong when it comes to the issues at stake. And the Democrats simply have been wrong on just about everything since you elected them to take total control of this state in 2006.
For instance, they all chose to significantly raise your taxes and add additional ones during the height of a recession, putting more hardships into your lives.
Your sales tax will increase 25 percent. And even though there is an exemption on alcohol, you're going to pay $6.25 percent more.
If you have a satellite service like Direct TV or Dish Network, you're going to pay new taxes. Massachusetts will now be in the world record books to be the only place to tax satellite TV.
Watch out for nursing home taxes. We have a nursing home shortage as is, with more threatening to close along with drug costs going through the roof. Now the Legislature wants to add further hardships by taxing both.
If all this isn't enough, Gov. Patrick is still not ruling out his ever-expanding increase in the gas tax if all of the above doesn't balance the books.
Then there are those Beautiful People at "Stop the Pike Hike," celebrating and taking all the credit for preventing the tolls from going up. They still can't understand that the real reason why the tolls didn't go up (yet) is because everything else will be. I say to them better luck next Spring.
Did I tell you about the letter "Mumbles" wrote to the MBTA regarding the 20 percent fare increase they want to impose? Let me warn you that this is our mayor at his best fighting for you.
Mumbles writes:
"Riders should not be forced to shoulder the burden of this depth, and that, riders should not be forced to shoulder the financial burden for a transportation system enjoyed by the entire state." Then he writes: "Raising the gas tax would be the solution." And let's not forget he also wants a city meals' tax and a hotel tax in which he will get soon.
It's loons like him and Patrick, along with their kind who control the Legislature, that continue to drive this state right into the ground.
So this Saturday, your elected officials will return the favor to you. And the Beautiful People will continue to support their own worst enemy:
Their one party rule of liberal Democrats.
