? Now your personal insults aren't even making sense. Time to get banned again, I guess.

I'm a guy - there's another "jag" in an MD Patch that I've seen from time to time as well (no idea if she's a woman or man).
Classy as ever aren't you, Sanchez. Your comment is particularly dumb considering you're the one who comes on Patch to whine and scream about liberals/O'Malley/Obama/immigrants/etc. incessantly - if not just personally attack everyone who happens to not hold your opinion - no matter how irrelevant it is to the article at hand. Hence why you've been banned so many times and zero people on here give your comments any credence. -

Raynard Jackson's a Republican political consultant. He and his ilk (on any side of the political spectrum) very much embody the sentiment you expressed: the "main goal is his personal professional survival and secondly their parties dominance". He's a weasel of the worst kind. I don't think I've seen a post from him that isn't race-baiting, inflammatory garbage.

Amark, you appear to be confused. "Taxes don't rise with inflation like goods and services do for your information." No, when they are a percentage, they don't need to rise with inflation. However, when a tax is a set $ amount, e.g. a 20 cent fuel tax, the buying power of that 20 cents continues to degrade, over time, according to the rise in inflation. Hence the need to raise the tax from time to time (20 years was far too long to wait). Alternatively, you can simply peg the tax to inflation so it automatically adjusts, which is what the GA (smartly) decided to do this time around. Get it now?

Nah, no buyer's remorse - check out the guy's other blog posts. He's about as far from an Obama voter as they come.

Here's Maryland's state tax burden as a % over the last 25 years. It's not rocket science, nor propaganda. It's quantifiable, readily available fact.
http://taxfoundation.org/article/marylands-state-and-local-tax-burden-1977-2010Sure, Amark likes to complain when the gas tax is raised every 20 years...it's called inflation. I can't buy bazooka gum for nickle anymore, either. Let's all rail against bazooka while we're hating on O'Malley! It'd be about as logical.

I agree, jnrentz1, I wasn't aware the less populous MD counties were exempt. That doesn't make sense to me.
Sanchez, I said "Do we still have higher taxes than say, Alabama? Yep, you bet ya. And we also have a much higher standard of living, much better infrastructure, much better schools, etc."
MD is, factually, a higher-than-avg. taxed state. That's not debatable. Just like it's not debatable that MD's tax burden has been falling during the O'Malley admin even while the avg. state has seen their tax burden go up. Look at the facts - state and federal taxes are waaaaaaaaaaay below the avg compared to the past few decades. This is, indisputably, one of the main causes for the major debt we've racked up. People keep voting for politicians who refuse to pay the real cost of things and prefer to just saddle the younger generation - including myself - with debt. It's absolutely despicable. Want to go to war? Put it on the debt. Want to give everyone a tax break? Put it on the debt. Want to expand Medicare? Put it on the debt. Pathetic.
