Lawmaker Launches "Stop The Rain Tax"

The so called "rain tax" takes effect on Monday, and a Republican lawmaker is forming a group that will attempt to stop it.

Taking a cue from owners of computer service businesses who repealed a sales tax extension five years ago, Baltimore County Republican Pat McDonough, has formed a group called Stop the Rain Tax to convince lawmakers to repeal the tax or scale it back.

He says his group is recruiting Democratic and Republican homeowners and business owners to convince lawmakers to make changes to the legislation that mandated the fee.

Businesses already have mandated storm water control in place. Hasn't O'Taxi ever seen a storm water retention pond? Does he think they overflow when it rains? He must never go out when it's raining, or he would see how they work. It is also explained in current law books, but why read those when you can convince your fellow crooks there's a new way to steal money from the masses?

It won't happen. O'Malley has that money spent already. That's how Democrats operate. They can't control their borrowing and spending.

Again it must start on the local level with Cane, Matias, and Conway. Replace them with Republicans who know how to control spending.

You all are WRONG. Vote them all out and start with some young working class people who knows the pain of working 40+ hours a week and being broke on Friday because of all of the fee's / taxes and then watch things change.

On my way to work yesterday Fritzwater street had 7 to eight inches of standing water. On the way home the water had receded only to leave the smell of an overflowed toilet.
