Well, evidently here in New York, there a was a “temporary” surcharge on tire disposal… Why?

The usual story, the budget’s tight, and we need someway to increase our state funding…. But it’s only going to be temporary….

Well, if there is one truthism, it is that there is nothing temporary about fee’s created by the government or a company. “Albany, N.Y. — What was supposed to be a temporary fee on new tire sales may be here to stay.”
