Drilling tax proposal sparks blowback
By Timothy Cama
The U.S. oil and gas industry is mounting an aggressive campaign to beat back a Pennsylvania proposal to impose a new tax on natural gas production in the state.

Maybe that tax can be used to repair and maintain the roads to which fracking trucks cause so much wear-&-tear. A 'fix' for Corbett's corporate welfare gift when he raised a number of transportation abd other fees that affect PA citizens and gave frackers a free infrastructure ride.
