FORECAST CALLS
FOR RAIN TAX
FOR YOU, TAX
CUT FOR
DEVELOPERS...
AGAIN!

Just last week we received word that the Montgomery County Council had voted unanimously to give developers a tax cut, while your taxes went up 8%, and a new energy tax is on their agenda.

Now, the state government wants in on the take.

USA Today reports that some in Annapolis want to force Montgomery and other counties to collect a "tax on rain" from... ...you!!!

That's right. Big Government will arbitrarily determine how much stormwater runoff there is from your residential property. And then charge you a tax of $24, $120, or ??? per year!

Wait a minute, aren't these the same lawmakers who are about to give developers a tax cut of sorts, by exempting them from the 2007 stormwater regulations?

Yes!

Once again, a tax cut for the developers and a tax increase for you!

What are you going to do about it on Election Day?
