Wes Moore blew through a surplus and seemed caught by surprise by a $3 billion deficit.

Now he is raising taxes on the wealthy and middle class:

Let's hope he is a one-term governor.

Governor’s budget proposal to include tax cuts and ‘growth agenda’ spending

Moore: 82% of people will see a cut or no change in taxes; corporate tax rate would also be cut

but yet my taxes will go up plus a surcharge on capital gains. They just love losing wealthy residents to VA. At some point, who will stay? There is zero incentive to stay in MD when VA is 5 min from my house.


I don't think the governor's budget proposal should be based on your personal preferences. If you want to move to Virginia, then move.

I agree. Lame!

Public services?!!! Hahaha.

I just drove from Silver Spring to Springfield on 495 today through Tysons. The entire time on the highway in MD all I could see on the side of the road were piles of garbage, roadway signs that should have been replaced 10 years ago, and overgrown brush. As soon as you cross the bridge into VA you see transportation infrastructure going up, relatively no garbage, nicer roadway signs, and a city like Tysons that is getting hundreds of thousands of square feet of business retail added to it every year. All the while Maryland’s infrastructure crumbles and businesses leap frog over it to come to VA. And guess what? NoVA’s infrastructure is better, cleaner, and growing with less personal income taxes! That’s what happens when have policies that make business growth happen.

Public services!! I needed a laugh.

Marylanders that live on the eastern shore in the counties bordering Delaware move to Delaware as it is significantly less expensive for middle class families and the schools are a lot better in Delaware.

I am pissed that Moore is cutting taxes while cutting education.

The tax savings resulting from my move from DC to Virginia covered nearly my entire mortgage (my mortgage went up by nearly 50%). In total, my mortgage + state taxes went down from DC to VA.

Np. I voted for Moore but did not contribute to Luigi.

Imagine that.

Trump pays very little while poor Trump supporters pay more.
