Tax losses from liquor bid lift in Maryland counties

In Wicomico and Somerset counties local option claims lower taxes and fewer criminals. Jamea O T Truitt says crime is minimal as jail is nearly empty, while Joshua W Miles notes liquor sales cost tax money through pensions, coffins, graves, and aid society expenditures. He cites 122,706.77 across four years and 30,676.69 yearly, arguing liquor removal would not raise city taxes and would boost property values.

Vote to end liquor traffic in Frederick County

A county campaign argues Frederick County has earned zero license revenue from liquor and would save about 30,676.69 in yearly taxes by ending saloons. It claims saloons burden taxpayers, fund crime costs, and shift taxes to others, urging residents to vote out the liquor traffic to reduce overall tax burden.
