    I don't understand why it was necessary to put together an article that perpetuates the differences in economic prosperity where we live. I feel it just adds to the "class" mentality. Do we really need that in our communities?

    What kills me is that my husband works for Westinghouse Electric, he's IN CHINA for 4 years, our residence is in Penn Hills, we pay school tax in Penn Hills, and yet Cranberry is collecting a school tax from his paycheck. Talk about taxation without representation.
