This is just a never-ending nightmare. Aaaaargh! Why do our Harrisburg City and Dauphin County elected officials keep throwing more money down this money pit? This is just insane. They keep believing if we just throw a little bit more money at it, Covanta will perform magic and the incinerator will work like it's supposed to and we'll either break even or start making money every month. I have my doubts on that. Do you know how much the city and county taxpayers are on the hook for this? Approaching $300 million dollars. Jeez Louise that's a lot of money. Most of that amount falls on the city taxpayers. $300 million d-o-l-l-a-r-s.
This incinerator loses $1 million plus dollars a month. A month! And our elected city and county officials keep throwing good money after bad. When does it stop? Go to King Reed's office and ask him that. This is the guy who used the Harrisburg Authority,which owns and runs the incinerator, for his own personal piggy bank to buy artifacts. Go to the City Council meetings and ask them how much longer will they permit this folly to continue. Go to the Dauphin County Commissioners meetings and ask them the same thing. How much longer will they continue with this? This is INSANE people!
The city of Harrisburg is the most heavily indebted municipality per capita in Pennsylvania. Embarassing isn't it?
The Patriot-News has an excellent editorial in today's edition: Too Much.
That's the title in the print edition, and they're right. It's really an interesting read, especially the first paragraph.
My take on all of this? Stop this insanity and either default or find some way to pay this debt, and start using Lancaster County's incinerator that is right down the road a little ways near Bainbridge. It's not that far from Harrisburg.
Stop the insanity!!
