[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a born and bread DCer, product and parent of local privates, I say its idiotic for people to complain about MD and VA students coming in to dc for private school. Anybody who says otherwise is a pathetic whiner. On the other hand, I do so see some merit to the argument about people from Md and Va coming for employment and failing to support our government with a commuter tax. You do use up huge resources and don't contribute any thing.[/quote] This doesn't make any sense to me. Are you really saying that, whether or not there is a commuter tax, suburban employees don't benefit the district? I pay a fair amount of money in sales taxes here, and, I can assure you, have a very light footprint in terms of consuming district resources. My guess is that I pay more in taxes than I consume in resources -- do you have any data to the contrary? [/quote]
