  3. There has to be a legal remedy to get the County Council defunded and rendered irrelevant. Anyone noticed how frustrated businesse owners are with the plastic bag ban? Crime runs rampant, the Democratic Socialists are trying to close high performing schools and we keep we want more! Resourceful people are leaving or getting tax residency elsewhere. Socialism works til you run out of other people’s money. This is a disaster of the left wing boomers making.

    1. MoCo seems to be more interested in enhancing it's "Woke" credentials than it is with actually looking to the needs of the hard working citizens who are being taxed more and more to support and endless string of social programs that attract more and more non-productive folks to our county. Our county government is more concerned with the rights of thugs, hoodlums and other criminals than they are with the safety of honest citizens and local businesses.

  4. I agree we need a better solution to the crime instead of getting side tracked with stupid stuff like plastic bags! The least of our worries when r businesses can’t sustain even one year in MOCO because the rent is too high!

  7. 10:29 Our county elected officials have stopped working for residents. The job is purely performative now.
    The big problems have grown so large now (traffic, housing, crime, cost of living) they're afraid to even address them.

    1. I thought inflation, and housing costs were dropping while GDP is going up.

  8. 6:26am Cost of food is still an issue. Housing prices almost doubled in some neighborhoods over a few years during and after COVID.
    None of the traffic choke points like the 495 Legion bridge area have been touched in 25+ years on the Maryland side.
    Lots of problems not been being addressed.
