(Annapolis has wasted millions already before and after the economic bust. They had opportunity after opportunity to correctly prioritize spending. Instead they spent money on what progressives do best. They spent money on palatial schools for votes. They did everything but consider the ramifications of their waste and yet they were all reelected. Marylanders have no one to blame but themselves.
