[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey if they federalize dc does that get rid of state income tax?[/quote]

Turn DC into Hong Kong...no federal taxes and no DC taxes. Woo Hoo![/quote]

Now you are talking! This is something everyone world get behind(well except the DC crime stats guy). The territories do pay federal taxes. Maybe exempt business from corporate taxes if they are registered or HQs are located in DC.[/quote]

yeah baby! and get rid of the height act. we’d be cooking with gas. [/quote]

The Height act is stupid. It traps DC in to medium density where services like public transportation, policing, fire & rescue, etc. are difficult to provided adequately because the tax base does not support it. DC is too dense not to have these services but not dense enough to afford to fund the services adequately. 
Also stand on K street and 19th street and tell me what exactly what the Height limit is accomplishing? Protecting the shared views? Go to Wisconsin and Western Avenue one side of the street has 30 story buildings and on the other side of the street the buildings are limited in height. What’s is the point? [/quote]
