If Anirban Basu is right, Maryland is on a path toward cutting state jobs.
The job cuts won't happen overnight, said Basu, an economist who is the CEO of Baltimore economic and policy consulting firm Sage Policy Group Inc. But the writing seems to be on the wall.
Maryland's government continues to see revenue shortfalls, putting a pinch on future state spending possibilities, Basu said. Add in this week's election of Republican gubernatorial candidate Larry Hogan, who campaigned on a platform of lowering taxes, and you have a recipe for smaller government. That, in turn, would point to state job cuts.

it's about time
It's called cutting the fat. Once businesses start coming to Maryland again these lazy assed state employees might be able to find a job with them. IF they aren't to lazy to go out and apply.
What was the made up position Jimmy the gay blade talked Marty the rain tax moocher into giving to Chuck Cook for being an Obama delegate?
That position needs to be brought to the attention of the Hogan team for immediate review.
Chucky the cokehead needs to go...
Didn't he run through a Hogan campaign event screaming in a chicken suit??
So what's the problem of firing people who doesn't do anything but pickup there paychecks.
It's about damn time. Government is so inefficient it's scary.
