[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually put most of the blame on Elrich here, for a few reasons.

1) despite towering assessment hikes which raised the property tax by themselves, he calls for a 10% property tax hike to drastically grow basically every branch of county government.

2) He gave very generous deals to all the public service unions, across the board.

3) He has never demonstrated any concern for transparency or results of any kind in MCPS, so of course the MCEA thinks they can run over the council.

Best of all- even if he somehow got the 10% increase through- there is still a structural deficit for NEXT YEAR.   So we'll just be right back here doing it again.[/quote]

Yup. I think your assessment is spot on.

But further to your point, I have to blame MoCo voters because we voted Elrich back in, knowing this is who he was and how he operates.[/quote]

Yup. And insiders say he plans to run for  3rd term. Just to make sure we never recover.[/quote]
