Four Israeli Tech Firms To Open Maryland Offices

Four high-tech Israeli firms on Tuesday unveiled plans to open offices in Maryland.

The news comes as Gov. Martin O'Malley and state business leaders are in the midst of an economic trade mission in Israel and Jordan.

The companies, Shekel Scales, Askimo, Roboteam and Hybrid Security, range from a global provider of electronic scales and weighing systems to a startup developing web fraud detection solutions.

I think this is a bit misleading. I don't think it was actually Shekel Scales that "opened it's office in Owings Mills earlier this year" but another company, a distributorship for Shekel which incidently has been in business for over 20 years and may have just relocated to a larger facility within MD.

O'suckhole is probably giving them tax incentives and tax breaks to come here, meanwhile, he's raising taxes on existing companies to pay for it!

What about the thousands he is trying to put out of business, the ones that went out of business and the ones he has driven out of the state. Where are his priorities should help the ones in his own state and country.

He is bribing these companies into the state, then they will lose the perks, become heavily taxed, then leave MD for a better deal in another state.
