Gov. Martin O'Malley says creating jobs is his top priority.

He proclaims the goal with the fervor of a religious zealot. "Maryland will lead the country, not only economically, but morally," he said during an August visit to Fisher BioServices in Wedgewood Business Park.

So far he has tried to achieve this vision by expanding government. He supported increases to the sales tax, corporate income tax and income tax in 2007. And he champions taxpayer subsidies to favored industries, including biotechnology. He also supports subsidies for health care coverage for small business and tax credits for hiring workers -- two reforms that failed miserably to achieve either of their goals.

While the unemployment rate in Maryland is lower than in the rest of the nation, O'Malley cannot take credit for it. New census data show the U.S. government shoveled $34 billion to contractors over the last fiscal year, a $9 billion increase from the previous year. And the state's myriad federal compounds have been hiring at a robust clip, according to national employment data. O'Malley's administration had nothing to do with either of those actions.

To create jobs, he should listen to people who run businesses... http://www.fredericknewspost.com/sections/opinion/display_columnist.htm?StoryID=110202&ref=nf
