When Ehrlich was governor, all the legislature did was obstruct him.

“When Ehrlich was governor, all the legislature did was obstruct him.”

Yep, I remember when he wanted to bring Casino gambling to Maryland instead of raising taxes and they blocked it constantly as being bad for the people of Maryland.

Once they defeated him in his reelection bid and took over, they raised taxes as much as they could and then said “hey, we’ve got a great idea, let’s have Casino gambling in the state for the money it will raise for the state government.” So now we have Casinos and they have their cut; but they then went on and raised taxes even higher. The Maryland ‘RATS even passed a “rain tax”; you’ve read that right, the now actually TAX THE RAIN on your property. Maryland is the only state (so far) that taxes the rain.

The rain tax may have been the RATS’ “bridge too far” as it has pissed off a lot of people and THAT may be why we have a Republican Governor-elect.

I think I read that we don't have as many dems as delegates and senators and they will not be able to override Hogan's vetoes. That would make a big difference.
