[quote=Anonymous]For those of you who want MCPS to stay the same or improve, you need to vote for county council and executives who will stop the creation of new housing and support better businesses.  While adding new residential properties will add some taxes to the county, it also adds more families with more children entering the system.  And then any tax money will go towards providing for the additional children rather than improving services and support for the children already in the system.

Adding better business management and laws, and providing incentives to businesses to come into the county will increase the tax revenue without adding children to the system.  Then money can be applied towards additional teachers without accounting for additional students and additional services and supplies for the children already in the system.  Additionally, the jobs will also likely bring additional workers to the county many of whom will live in the area and add additional tax income to the county.  And when you increase the demand without increasing the supply, property values will go up which translates to higher property taxes and more tax revenue, some of which can be applied towards schools.

So, voting for those who vote against business friendly initiatives, and for more residential housing is directly voting against the best interests of the schools and students.[/quote]
