[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m no longer pro statehood. I wanna be a tax haven like Monaco.
With all services provided by the feds and technocrats.

It’s them Council developmentally arrested toddlers what done it.

If we gain statehood it’s only fair that we loose a bunch of federal agencies (probably all but one). Have fun in Iowa pro-statehood feds [/quote]

85% of federal employees live outside DC. Vast majority of agencies’ staff are spread around the country.

The agency’s are headquartered in DC because the heads are in the President’s Cabinet and they need to meet with POTUS staff, Congressional staff and judicial matters on a daily basis. Plus so much federal work is interagency and you need the agency main offices in the same place.

You’re so naive. With the statehood, we’ll become the worst and poorest state so fast!

Your stats are wrong. But let’s say true, no one cares that the worker lives in VMWVP, it’s that the agency and its funding will go to another state. These workers will go poor or move. DC will be a ghost town. But you’ll have 3 lifelong officials who can be as corrupt as one wants.

Sorry, I’d rather go the other way and not pay tax [/quote]
