Taxes Suck!!

The cost of living just keeps on rising.. Gas prices are well over $3 per gallon, it's costing me over $40 to fill up my tank. Utilities in Maryland have skyrocketed, my electric bill has doubled from the time I first moved into Baltimore (less than a year ago).
On top of these extra expenses, Marylands Governor Martin O'Malley had the bright idea to increase government spending on programs that wont be effective by billions of dollars. Unfortunatly Governor O'Malley realized after he pledged all this money, and the state budget did not have it, so what does he do?? He declares an Structural Deficit, and calls for an emergency special session of the state legislature in order to raise our taxes (heaven forbid, he cuts out one of his programs).
With the extra costs of gas, electricity and other products nowadays, I can barely affort to live in Maryland as is, now Governor O'Malley is raising my taxes!!! What a Putz!!
