[quote=Anonymous][quote]+1 Virginia's incentives are among the lowest yet they won the bid.[b] MoCo's basically threw themselves at Amazon with it's $8B bid and still nothing.[/b] I am a MoCo resident and getting disturbed by Maryland's inability to attract more businesses. All I see is residential homes popping up and no real plans to accommodate the new population. If you think your public schools with a 28:1 kid ratio with no aid, I can't imagine what it will be like in a few years.[/quote]

+2 MoCo has too strong of a history of being anti-business. From the business perspective looking at who MoCo votes into office, there would be zero chance that other taxes and regulations would not appear in the future. Business also look at the financial stability of the location they are considering. MoCo own office just published reports that are concerning. The county is not on stable financial footing, projecting declines in revenue and no plans to cut programs.

As long as the county is controlled by Takoma Park and Silver Spring, it will keep going down. [/quote]
