Thoughts on a Second Stimulus
It would be fascinating to see what impact these laws have on residents in and out of Montgomery County and ability of the County to recruit businesses to be based there. I, for one, couldn't imagine buying real estate and living in a place that forced me to put an agreement in writing with my hypothetical nanny.
Anyway, who on earth has a nanny that can read English? ;)
"This is a classic MoCo decision to make law as a political statement rather than as a remedy to a burning social need."
Or it could be the start of a licensing drive by nanny agencies, toward keeping away competition.
Perhaps a combination.
Perhaps we should thank Montgomery County's gov't for drawing off the voters who like this kind of thing and sparing everyone else.
