Emission Testing
As if there isn’t enough of an overhead to maintain your vehicle already, these wonderful new tests will tack on. If the state wants this done then I say let THEM foot the bill! Of course, that ain’t happening kiddies! So the best anyone can offer is to shop around Luzerne County for the cheapest possible deal, and be prepared to drop off your car for the day because it’ll take the better part of day to do all these nonsensical tests. Pretty soon they WILL be having you take your lawn mower in for an inspection. Freaks! They’ll worry about a pound or two of CO2 that your car makes but don’t give a damn at all the millions of tons of air pollutants that are made at Valmont and Humbolt and Crestwood 24/7! But that’s what we call progress. We need factories. Cars are just a PRIVILEDGE! Cars allow you to go to factories, but otherwise they are just taxable liable luxury items. Am I getting warm here? No. I’m just getting pissed off. So, everyone do your best to get through these monetary hikes in every aspect of our lifes.

Luzerne County’s New Budget System
A new plan with old bureaucracy.

Freeland Teacher Wins Powerball
Ol’ Mr. Hauze struck it big.

HASB Has New Budget
$3.3 million dollars, huh? I wonder how much that will go to newer prison facilities on campus? How much is a walk through metal detector anyway? Oh, by the way did we mention that none of the students will have books? Or that pencils are verbotin, as they may be used as weapons? Shoelaces are also forbidden according to the new dress code! Happy learning kids!

Hazleton Catholic Schools Getting Checked Out
The Scranton Diocese is looking to close at least one of the four in Hazleton Holy-Roller Schools. Good! That’s a start, but it’s no where near enough. Education should be in no way connected to organized religion, a thing that corrupts a young impressionable mind with dogma! Stop the madness! God just wants everyone to be nice to each other. That’s simple. Organized religion has to complicate that and uses psuedo-schooling to promote religious agendas!

Retirement Ghetto Coming to Our Area
Just what this area needs another place to concentrate the decaying ones! Insighting the old to move in here in great tribes just makes this dump more of an aged pool of backward thinkers! *laughing hysterically* Let’s make more old folks homes, duh-huh-huh-huh!

Residents Want More Cops
We the people of Hazleton are old and frightened of our shadows. Please give us more officers of oppression so that we can feel safe when we peer out behind our curtains and tremble in fear of the Great Hispanic Plague! *sinister & stupid musak plus polkas* and ya know what? The dumbass fearful denizens of this town will probably get them too. Be careful what ya wish for…

Tamaqua Gonna Get an LCCC
That way more students can be educated in the fine arts of “just enough schooling to get a factory job.” Another great planned part of the “Don’t Leave Hazleton Campaign!”

Fussing Over Libaray Funds
Eachus wants the Hazleton Area School Board to increase contributions to the Hazleton Area Public Library. Doesn’t he understand that that money could be going for more useful things like the HASB SWAT Team for Higher Education and Incarceration? Where’s your head Todd? They don’t need books. They need night sticks and tear gas to educate our youth properly!

CANT BE the Sequel
From the people who brought you CANT DO and have done so much to quell are wills to live anything but the factory-dream are bringing you CANT BE where newer business will be brought in provided they meet the low standards and criteria of kickbacks for the members of CANT DO and the usual powers-that-be of the *trumpets please* Greater Hazleton Area! I wonder if they’ll make it a trilogy with something like CANT HAVE or CANT LEAVE?

EDITOR’S NOTE: There has been some confusion over the links to many of the articles referred to on this block that appeared in the Standard Speaker newspaper. The reason they are linked to the Speaker is to point out firstly that that’s is where the information for many of rants comes from and secondly to point out the ineptness of the Speaker’s website, in typical Hazleton fashion has no information about it’s own articles printed. At one time it had the obituaries listed, but soon removed them the paper decided too many people were not buying this gospel of Hazleton from the newstands. Cheap bastards! Anywho, I hope this clarifies the point to linking constantly to the standard Speaker and any other Hazleton related links that may contain no pertinent information –Gom “Mr. Editor” Beggar
