At the end of the day, there’s just not a reasonable case for privately owned utilities. You argue that the fee structure is a problem with Harrisburg. And that allocating money to improvement and maintenance was also a problem with Harrisburg. Sounds like a lot of problems with Harrisburg. Maybe we should fix Harrisburg to work for us before we hastily sell off the rights to manage our public utilities to companies that focus on profits rather than service.

I hope everyday that we can stop treating climate change as a political hot button issue. But when I have relatives that won't switch to renewable energy suppliers in order to save money on their bill, because it's "green energy", I lose a bit of that hope. Fight over abortion, believe that the election's stolen, unlimited guns, whatever you want.. but can't we please treat climate change seriously?

I don't like Krasner. I don't know why y'all voted him in for a second term. Point to whichever academic studies you want, but his actions (downgrading charges, gutting the DA's office, souring the office's relationship with police, gaslighting Philadelphians about our crime problem) have absolutely contributed to the city's rising crime. However, this impeachment trial is a total farce, and it's not the way to operate in a democracy.

The library can restrict books by age. But let’s be clear that you cherry picked what you thought was the most offensive book to be banned. The nut jobs on the school board want to ban sex Ed books because they have pictures of sexual organs. That’s hardly pornographic.
