in response to "No Crime" - 2/14/2012

The typical where I used to live was murder, home invasion, rape, etc. I think you get the point.

Cost of living HIGH in MD regardless of city - 7/12/2006
The cost of living in MD is high regardless of where you live now that BGE has stuck out it's greedy hand and is raising rates 30-72%. Senior citizens and single parents or one-worker families can't survive without extra income. Property taxes are high. Electricity is high. The counties are getting greedier and the State is greedy. It doesn't even have money to help the disabled. I know this first
