Abstract

In the middle of a pandemic that threatened to devastate the economy and squeeze government budgets, Maryland is reporting higher than expected tax collection, more than $2 billion of it. Sunil Dasgupta talks with Maryland House Majority Leader Eric Luedtke and UMBC budget expert Roy Meyers about the politics of plenty. Very local news, including a poorly designed public survey. Music from DC area band King Soul.
