Marylanders don’t just flee taxes; it’s the least free state

(Examiner.com via DIGG) J.D. Tuccille writes at Exaiminer.com The exodus of the well-heeled is a reminder that when governments make life less pleasant, people are prone to vote against such treatment with their feet. But it’s not just economics; Marylanders have plenty of reason to flee based on personal freedom issues, too.”

Taxes are exorbitant in Maryland thanks to the law-makers in Annapolis that claim to represent us. J.D.’s article is an eye opener that I suggest every Maryland resident read. Our local and state representatives NEVER consider the total tax burden. They look only at the share they raise and control. The total burden on the elderly, or the poor make no difference. Spending in Annapolis is out of control. The state’s budget is still over the top because spending was not curtailed even when stimulus funds were received. There is going to be an exodus of baby-boomers from this state soon. Along with the well-to-do Maryland will continue to lose freedoms and lower income people as long as the tax and spend mentality of the current legislature is left uncontrolled.

Thanks J.D. for your insights.
