The county agreed in 2013 to collaborate with Prince George’s County and Washington in gradually raising the minimum to $11.50 by 2017. Montgomery County’s current minimum wage is $9.55.

That's it drive more companies away from Maryland!
$15 an hour is hardly a "living wage" especially in Montgomery County. What it will do is make a lot of the working poor ineligible for food stamps, housing assistance and Medicaid.
It means higher taxes to pay for welfare for the newly unhired.
The bureaucrats who have taken over PGCo & MoCo have mandated higher wages and numerous fringe benefits to small business employees all over MD. The mandators are parasites feeding at the gubmint trough and draining us dry!
Kook elitists,most business owners don't make 15 hr themselves!
