[quote=Anonymous]Plus, many of the reasons for doing it before just don't exist. Back then - it was a huge deal where the capital would be as that part of a developing nation would have such an advantage. This was to prevent that advantage. Given that DC now really includes the Maryland and Virginia suburbs - that argument really doesn't hold any water. And I don't care quite so much about representation (though I do care!) as I do about the capricious way the ruling party of congress can suppress and circumvent the wishes of the people. That is so not what was intended![/quote]
