Thank you ohio county commissioners for adding another tax besides our property taxes doubling . I guess you don't make enough money from the highlands or the over 1,000 acres of property your collecting royalties from so you need more money from landowners. There's going to be a lot of property for sale and the ones upside down on taxes will either have to sell or sell out to a mineral company. I don't mind doing my part but when they constantly have there hand out it gets old real quick. It's just greed doubling prop taxes, adding new mineral taxes and higher fire tax. The people I feel really got screwed are the ones I n a non producing unit your paying 300 a acre and getting no royalties. If I only own 16 0/0 and swn owns the rest why doesn't swn pay for 84 0/0 of my tax bill ? I'm not very educated but I'm pretty sure there was a war where our ancestors fought for freedom and the right not to be taxed to death not well give huge tax breaks to out of town companies and tax the shit out of our citizens.

It is disgusting. I don't even know we're to start complaining about Ohio County and wheeling wv taxes. It seems fishy that we are over two of the largest resources in the world but everything is going up in price...gas bill..electric..taxes. everything except my paycheck.

Kris,

     I agree the taxes in each state are going up on landowners. More of the landowners are being shorted royalties than what the states or public know at present. We need to speak up and fix this knowledge issue.

There is another nasty issue that landowners are footing the bill for, HEALTH CARE. The Federal Gov forced the law on all of us without first getting control of the Health Insurance industry. I've noticed how things have changed to make sure more money is flowing to the Health Care Companies. Co-pays are up tremendously, and if you use the HC.gov website and use various ages, you'll see that costs run $750 to $850 or more per month per person prior to reaching Medicare age at 65. Who can afford that?

All of our state and local government officials, employees and retirees need a source of money to pay for the promised insurance. Yes, you guessed it landowners can foot the bill for Schools and now Healthcare.

Where are all the Millionaires in PA, OH, & WV? They went from being paid a fair royalty to being paid a "Rationed" Royalty in early 2014 when the ceos figured it was time to horde the wealth.

Then OPEC started crushing the O&G companies with reduced oil prices.

I'm glad to see that the landowners dreams aren't the only dreams being crushed, the O&G thieves will be looking for a job in the Service Industry before OPEC stops the overproduction. Also IRAN is promising 1 Million Barrels of oil a day, which should finish off the US Domestic oil companies. What goes around comes around Bobby!

Oh, Could not have anything to do with (D) for all county commissioners now could it????

For starters elect a commissioner with a (C) for conservative a (R) will not do. R for RINO or Rockefeller the same thing. 

Turn WV deep red.

Funny how Conservative is red. Used to be red was Communist. Communist used to be bad. Now consertive Is red. Left is Right and...

 Sometimes, Winston. Sometimes. they are five. Sometimes they are three. Sometimes they are all of them at once. You must try harder. It is not easy to become sane.”

It is a simple fact of life these folks who add such taxes think they are sticking it to "Big Oil" and as for you "little people" - you did nothing to deserve the "windfall" that they are jealous of.  As far as they are concerned you didn't deserve a dime, and they think we ought to be like all totalitarian governments - the government should own all of the oil.
