“It’s a wonder that American workers support the 18th century robber baron agenda of the Republican Party, a party that constantly votes against their interests: tax cuts for the rich; judges who support monopolies and always rule in favor of corporations; destruction of the environment; deregulation of rules that protect consumers and workers; support for an avaricious military-industrial-pharmaceutical complex; rampant business and Congressional corruption; and a Congress that refuses to raise the minimum wage, while raising it’s own pay seven times in eight years.”

We ask you to read Governor O'Malley's budget plan carefully. It isn't perfect, but you must admit that the reactionary hotheads haven't got a clue. Ask any knee-jerk reactionary who is railing about taxes to suggest a state program to cut. I have noticed that most have absolutely no idea what state government does. So much for an informed electorate!

Twenty-four hours a day, state employees watch out for you, your family and our state. Maryland's problem is not what to cut, it's getting the freeloaders to pay their fair share.
