[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC firms could just relocate to Md. and Virginia. Would you prefer that? I would. Let DC be a museum, Georgetown and a ghetto.[/quote] This is a true disincentive for nonprofits and even trade associations to locate over in Arlington rather than DC, with the resulting increased payroll tax on employers. Law firms may stay, but at the margins, this really increases costs for businesses and organizations, and those who can, may move. It would be one thing if DC offered near the same benefits as neighboring jurisdictions, but in this case DC is just pricing itself out of the market.[/quote] It will also likely increase discriminatory hiring practices against women of child-bearing age.
