Pennsylvania Hikes Taxes as Budget Gap Persists
Governor Shafer signed measures boosting business taxes by $254 million annually retroactive to 1969, leaving a funding shortfall for the Pennsylvania Industrial Development Authority and risking attraction of new industry as states compete for investment. The plan followed earlier Senate and House considerations to broaden the sales tax to machinery and clothing.

It cites suspending rules to pass a 1953 sales tax and contrasts with footballs 60 minute limit.
