[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wouldn’t this be a boon to the DC economy? It’s a shoulder season weekend before most schools close and the July 4th holiday. Seems like thousands of extra hotel room sales and full restaurants would eclipse the costs. What am I missing?[/quote] House GOP has destroyed DC's current FY budget. DC does not have the money to clean up after Toddler Trump's Facist Dictator Parade. MPD will get paid to cover it, I'm sure, at the expense of other things in DC[/quote] I guess. But all the more reason we need extra revenue. So with a 15% hotel tax, 10% meals tax, 18% parking garage tax, and thousands of extra riders on Metro this seems like a great opportunity to fill the city during a low tourism month. Plus, with the Nats in town that has to mean a few thousand additional ticket sales. Seems like a financial win, no?[/quote]
