I did, just a mile or two over the mason dixon line some years ago. I started the process of starting an internet services business last year. Many of my local customers are in carroll county and ideally the business would be in CC too. Once the tech tax passed in the early morning hours of the special session without debate or discussion I quickly made the decision to base the business out of PA.
Last fall, work was halted because the Department of the Environment decided the cooperative needed $1-a-foot annual permits to cross wetlands such as rivers, even though the lines are going along existing roads.
If this project is anything like the fiber project I have been involved in, the fiber is usually hung on poles owned by BGE or Verizon, or run thru their conduit. Poles that carry electric, phone and usually cabtv cables. I would be interested to know if these fiber runs are using current infrastructure. If it is then I call BS on what the DoE was trying to do.

I guess I'll have to. I'm 19, in college here, but since O'Malley wants to give instate tuition to illegals, I may have to pay more on that front too. Also considering the two jobs I work are tech-related (as it stands now they will be taxed) I'll be paying more for my education while being taxed even more via the only means I earn a living. Add that onto the sales tax increase, and I'm now running a deficit. Thanks O'Schmuck! |

However, Sounds like you have issues with anyone who has a problem with MD.
Honestly I don't agree with your statement regarding Florida. Like other members stated FL is a transient place people from all over come and retire or just transplant themselves to FL.
Look at OJ he loves his place, thanks to FL laws they can't take his house in a civil suit.
Other than FL, NY , CA , TX , MD all have their problems.
Labeling is a bad thing its as bad as being prejudice.
I hope your not.
