Who Benefits?

The Higher Subsidies The Higher The Tuitions The More Highly Paid Administrators, Faculty and Staff. How do students benefit?

Four Appropriations Acts of 2011 appropriated $558,411 fiscal year 2011-12, more than half billion dollars, to the following millions of taxpayer money to private, tax exempt nonprofit big business corporate billionaires with significant real estate interests

$238,792,000 Penn State As taxpayers subsidies increase, tuitions increase, salaries increase and , administrators and nonteaching staff increase, student debt increases, but student learning performance remains stagnant. The Trustees and Administrators and the Faculty of this $4 billion dollar Tax Exempt Leviathan failed to protect the most innocent and defenseless child a rape of a 10 year old and protecting a serial child molester and it wants more money?

PENN STATE has an annual budget of $4 Billion and owns 7 airplanes and its own airport and a student to staff ration of 2 to 1 and its Administration covered up the March 2002 rape of a ten year old and protected a child molester.

$29,000,000 to UPENN

UPITT and TempleU are also private, tax exempt nonprofit corporate big business billionaires with significant real estate interests. The Presidents and many of the top employees are in top 1% of income bracket, the OnePerCenters. All paid for by productive taxpayers who work, save and invest.

Total 558,411,000 more than billion taxpayer dollars that the General Assembly and Governor forced The Forgotten Taxpayer to pay to private tax exempt nonprofit big business corporate billionaires. What was the result? Higher Tuitions and are students learning anymore or any better off. Productive taxmakers/taxpayers aren't any better off.

All are exempt, in significant part, from Pennsylvanias Right to Know Law. Sen. Pileggi has positioned himself as a champion of transparency but that would not be my opinion. Rep. Tim Mahoney was the unlikely driver of this legislation with support from Bill DeWeese of all people. Who knows why? Sen. Pileggi went with the flow.
