Moore Embraces Business, but Drives Up Costs as well

Everybody, even progressive Democrats, loves a growing business community. It means more jobs, more income, more taxes. When the new governor and comptroller spoke to the Maryland Chamber of Commerce Feb. 28, they embraced the business community. Said Gov. Wes Moore, who had actually spent some time as an investment banker: “When Maryland’s businesses are strong, Maryland’s communities are strong. As governor, I am dedicated to doing everything in my power to make Maryland the business capital of the United States.”
