DC is Losing Jobs to Virginia

[Anonymous]

" From 1801 to 1847, what are now Arlington and a portion of the City of Alexandria were known as Alexandria County, District of Columbia."

Publics are trash everywhere. Nova is a unplanned public hardscrabble. Md has all the privates and country clubs separated by Maryland’s Potomac river.

We moved to moco for easy access to the privates. Covid exposed the NOVA public rot.

Can’t really get too excited about the idea of moving to MoCo for stuffy privates and then paying higher taxes all to underwrite MCPS’s expenditures of legal fees to defend allegations of sexual harassment and probe just how incompetent McKnight has been as superintendent.

Enjoy! Meanwhile we’ll take the greater job growth and equity appreciation across the river.

And UMD as your only real in-state public university—instead of UVA, William&Mary, VA Tech, JMU, GMU etc

B1G ten UMD, Annapolis, Georgetown and Hopkins all within a 30 mile radius is a vastly superior educational community. UMD alone has more national championships and alum have more nobels, pulitzers, emmys, academy awards and fields medals than all the Va colleges put together.

Um. We live in Arlington- 2 miles from Georgetown’s campus where I work. GU is in DC and it’s a private university not sure why you are claiming it as part of MD. GW-American-GU-GMU (and even Catholic) is a more typical grouping due to law/govt/public policy.

On the confederate side purposely separated by the big wide Potomac River (owned by DC/MD). DC is donated by and Embedded in Md with all roads and land connected. Georgetown Maryland was the original town.

You should just stop. You’re not even worth engaging in conversation.

DC is embedded in and interconnected physically on the north side of the river. Look at the Maryland traffic arteries .. Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Connecticut, Georgia, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania avenues. Nova is the third wheel trying to glom on with desperate beer muscles in post after post.

Seriously. When was the last time you left your mother’s basement?

Never thought of that. DC and Md are essentially the same place.

Yes and using that great logic, Virginia and West Virginia are also essentially the same place. After all, they actually were once both the same state of Virginia.

West Virginia isn’t embedded in Virginia, on the same side of the Potomac River, donated to the country by Virginia, threaded together by Massachusetts/Wisconsin/Connecticut/Georgia/New Hampshire/Rhode Island/Pennsylvania avenues but it is certainly more Kim to Virginia than Md.

Actually, DC was from land given by both Maryland and Virginia in 1790.

West Virginia broke away from Virginia in 1863.

So both DC and West Virginia have kinship with Virginia. Congratulations, Virginia!

Virginia took back its land and rejected dc when slave trade within it was made illegal. Then Virginia lost the war and Md plus Dc were given all of the Potomac river leaving Virginia purposely separated from Md and it’s donated / embedded and physically integrated donation to the country.

Good reason the Big Ten expanded west and not south. The south isn’t really a cultural fit for the B1G.
