"Since opening in 2022, Herb Banks’ Waldorf-area distillery has served as a gathering spot for federal workers, including four men who used to reconnect over cocktails in the tasting room every Friday evening.
Lately, the group hasn’t stopped in as often. Nor have other regulars. Many in Waldorf, a booming, majority-Black bedroom community in Charles County, are scaling back their spending amid the Trump administration’s aggressive cuts to the federal workforce.
“The revenue has decreased significantly,” Banks said of his business, Copper Compass Distillery.
Charles and Prince George’s counties, Maryland neighbors with intertwined histories, are the nation’s richest majority-Black counties, with median household incomes that exceed $100,000. Nowhere else comes close. Dotted with megachurches, greenery and stately homes, they serve as powerful symbols of Black affluence and opportunity."
The opporunity? Getting gibsmedat jobs.

“Most people think of the Black middle class as being primarily a product of business ownership and perhaps attainment of other types of professional occupations, but they don’t think about the role of the federal government as a potential employer,” Duke University economist William A. “Sandy” Darity said.
Federal employment has even been a gateway into the middle class for Black workers without college degrees, who earn median incomes more than $30,000 higher than other Black non-college-educated workers, The Banner’s analysis found.
