Could you be a bit more specific? I'm sure we can both agree "the development of Penn Quarter" is not a "government policy". It seems to me that the high prices of close-in housing is an indicator that that housing is incredibly desirable. Is "allowing people to buy property and build houses" the policy we're talking about? Even if that's the case, does having a bunch of millionaires move into the city (instead of MD or VA), live in an area which previously there was no residential housing at all,  and pay DC income tax is an unambiguously bad thing for poor District residents.

No, I am not going to be more specific. You know as well as I do that a host of government policies led to the development of Penn Quarter. I said that the government implemented policies aimed at attracting the affluent. You questioned that and wanted an example. I've given you an example.

Since you don't seem satisfied with my ideas for addressing the less advantaged in DC, why don't you say more about how you plan to lower that population by getting them to move to Maryland and Virginia? Obviously, nobody is going to given $2,000 a month to move to another jurisdiction. So, tell me how you plan to get them to move and how that proposal will not play directly into the hands of Barry, Bonds, Orange and the rest?
