Will it get as bad as Pittsburgh?

Just when we think it can’t get any worse, it does.  In Pittsburgh, having run all for-profit businesses out of town, they are seriously considering taxing college tuition.  We are not kidding!

Students also point out that the tax would not be covered by financial aid — a poor undergraduate on a full scholarship at Carnegie Mellon would be hit with the same $400 tax as her wealthiest fellow student.
