WCLCB – Just More of Your Tax Dollars at Work

Here’s the latest example of your tax dollars at work – a full page piece of political progaganda in Metropolitan Magazine – courtesy of your friends at the Wicomico County Liquor Control Board.

Note that this is essentially a copy of those expensive postcards that we discussed in an earlier post. Remember that Haemel, Alessi & Co. keep bragging about the $400,000 that they give to the county government each year? Given that a full page ad in Metropolitan runs from $1,200 – $1,500 per month, how much more should be going back to the taxpayers of Wicomico County?

Add back the fancy postcards, full page newspaper ads, contributions to the pet groups of the board members. While I can only guess, these folks might owe us another $50,000 – $100,000!
