They're running out of money again. How long until another tax increase after they just raised property taxes?

Maybe we have too many undocumented migrants placing tremendous strain on our schools?

It's already $20k+ per pupil yet standards and outcomes are declining. MCPS is just one expensive baby sitting program.  I am sick and tired of justifying tax increases with the same of stupid arguments of 'It's for the schools!' and 'It's for education!'.  Those stupid taking points try to shutdown all debate in order to give MCPS carte Blanche to spend whatever they want with zero accountability and forced budgeting.

Broke already after tax increases, what a joke:

I call BS on this move - teachers are buying paper and pencils for students - which adds up.

They are going to tax our residents out of existence. [/quote]

The last tax increase didn’t go to education, even though it was required to go to education by state law. The county ended up with a big surplus, some of which went to subsidize businesses under a law that Andrew Friedson sponsored. [/quote]

Wait- what? It didn’t go to education? Where exactly did it go? What businesses did it subsidize? You’ll need to back that claim up….[/quote][/quote]
