Here in PA we are still paying a “temporary” tax that was imposed to clean-up the Johnstown Flood of 1936!

IIRC there is still a tax on phone bills to pay for the Spanish American war. Taxes don't die, they must be beaten to death.

Was there another major flood over Johnstown? The famous one was 1889. Unless you mean taxes went on even longer!
