Fascinating. It’s the role of government to give people government jobs, huh?
Please tell us more. I’m dying to hear other such pearls of wisdom.
I'm perplexed by how you came away with that interpretation. It seems like you would benefit immensely from an adult literacy class. There's no need to be ashamed -- somewhere in the neighborhood of 20% of the US population is functionally illiterate, so you've got plenty of company.
You can quibble about whether it's better to leave key agencies understaffed rather than fill those vacancies, even though there's absolutely no evidence in either direction yet in this case. Although, something tells me that you are not actually looking to have a productive conversation!
Have you benefitted from an increased level of services since Wes Moore came into office and went on a hiring spree? I haven't. Mostly I know that we are $3 billion in the red now and Moore is raising taxes, not just on the wealthy, but on the middle class, in stealth ways, as well:

Damn, Maryland, you had to vote in the neophyte politician, who lacked any governing experience.

This is why absolutely nobody takes regressives seriously.
Regressives? That’s a new one for me.
Well, nobody's ever accused a Republican of being well-informed.

He's raising taxes. Did you miss that part?
I'd much rather be governed by tax-and-spend Democrats than spend-and-spend Republicans who also cut taxes while plugging their ears and yelling "lalalalalala these taxcuts will be self-funding lalalalala"

In light of the so-called budget crisis he's trying to fix with a massive tax increase on the wealthy, this is stunning.
A few excerpts:
"Between salaries, benefits and, eventually, pensions — the number of people the state employs comes at a significant cost to taxpayers. And yet, at a time Gov. Wes Moore says major cuts need to be made, state government has only grown."
“It’s the largest fiscal crisis in 20 years,” Moore said during a recent news conference discussing how he plans to address a $3 billion deficit."
"According to data from Maryland’s Department of Labor, from when Moore took office in January 2023 to now, he’s added more than 5,000 new state employees."
"The cost of those additional employees remains unclear. The Department of Budget & Management and the Comptroller’s office say those figures are not available.
However, according to past and present state budget proposals, when Hogan left office, state salaries, wages and benefits were projected to cost taxpayers $10.2 billion. Under Moore, that figure increased to $11.3 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach $12.2 billion in 2025."
Wes Moore won't get reelected. He can't govern his way out of a paper bag.

Prior to the Moore administration, many critical positions were left unfilled. When Governor Moore took office, there were just under 6,100 vacancies in the Executive Branch.
