[quote=Anonymous]Someone made a tongue-in-cheek suggestion on another thread that parts of DC should be given back to Maryland, and it got me thinking. Might it make sense for all of DC to revert to Maryland? I know many will hate it from a pro-DC sense. But it would solve a lot of the Home Rule complexities DC now faces, and DC residents would finally get their Congressional representation. Maryland might get something of a tax boost from having all the extra revenue sources and tourism. DC's current government is no model of efficiency, so it might be improved by connecting with MD. MD already votes Dem, so simply adding DC to MD would not change many voting patterns. I know it will never actually happen, but wouldn't it make a lot of sense?[/quote]
