Associated Press: Gov. Ed Rendell acknowledged Thursday that his plan to reduce Pennsylvania’s sales tax and boost revenue by extending it to more goods and services is doomed – at least in this election year.
“It’s just very complex and you’d be stepping on the toes of a lot of special interests. I don’t think there’s an appetite to do that this year,” the Democrat said at a Capitol news briefing…
The sales-tax overhaul, expected to generate more than $850 million, had been the centerpiece of a larger package of tax changes.
