[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The city and the mayor said they would keep free Prk in the city throughout dcps. So, they need to do whatever is needed to achieve that.. Be it a slightly higher taxes or a special education tax. He!!, those speed cameras could probably put a dent it thw cost. But of course they also need to then actually make sure building are kept up, money is spent correctly and stop all this waste.  Maybe now that she has a kid she will care enough to keep Prk in the city.
True is was started for low income but it has become a draw for lots of families to start out and stay. If they drop it young families won't come to the city as quickly or stay. But the the suburbs housing costs will go up.. So idk. [/quote]

Great- so the feds are cutting funding to DC.
DC already gets by FAR the least federal money per capita relative to how much we pay in in taxes.

Each person in DC pays an average of 30k to the feds after all federal payments back to DC are factored in.
The next lowest state is New Jersey at about 5k paid in.  Most states are net takers from the feds.

It is ludicrous that DC subsidizes the federal government so heavily.  Either give us more education money or make us a state or both.
Taxation without representation, indeed.[/quote]
