PHILLY TARGETING TAX DEADBEATS

City Council Deadbeat SquadSix Philadelphia City Council members want to address the the city’s biggest problem: tax deadbeats.

The members are new to the council, so expect them to be brought into line by the end of the week, if not sooner.

Six council members first took office a year ago — four Democrats and two Republicans — and they have now joined together to propose a series of hearings on tax deadbeats.

“There’s money to be collected. And we need to go and get it. And we need to do a good job in going to get it. There’s no reason that Philadelphia should be at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to collecting these resources,” says Eighth District Council woman Cindy Bass.

Nutter Administration estimates that the city is owed $518 million dollars in back taxes dating back a decade. About half of that amount is delinquent property taxes. (LINK)

And almost all of the deadbeats are the “chosen people” of Philadelphia: liberal Democrats who put most of these council members into office.

    Yep, no doubt they will be ‘beaten’ into line by what ever means necessary, rather than actually DOING something that needs done!!!

    Yeah while the small business man is taxed and fined to death. Nutter and City Council will suck the life out of the small business people while these “Chosen” ones will get away with millions.
