You are so naive. Talk to the owners of small businesses who have closed because of the minimum wage increase and other MoCo policies. [/quote]

Small businesses frequently close because the landlords raise the rent ridiculously and let’s not gloss over MoCos ridiculous policies. The alcohol mafia taxes small businesses ridiculously (ask the owner of Hank Dietles) and has arbitrary policies like ‘only one family owned restaurant if more than one can serve alcohol’ . Why?? So, there are now 2 MoCo locations of Urban BBQ in Maryland but only one can serve alcohol. Why? My husband wanted a beer with BBQ for his birthday so we drive right past the Urban BBQ in Rockville as they don’t serve beer. What is ‘pro business’ about that kind of absurd policy?

What is ‘pro business’ about Nancy Floreen’s increase in the recordation tax? You buy a home or refinance and you pay the county thousands upon thousands in taxes. Who wants to buy here ?? How does that support the real estate or mortgage industries? [/quote]
