[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It wouldn’t change much, if at all. DC is basically a banana republic now: -corrupt, inept local government [b] -horrible public services -high crime -litter all over the place -anarchy on the roads on no traffic enforcement -a broken, unreliable train system [/b] -one-party rule -statutes and buildings honoring a crack-smoking, hooker-hiring mayor [b]-police who don’t show up -emergency response system so bad that a man died on the sidewalk outside a fire station a couple years ago -unsafe buildings that cause hazards and sometimes collapse, with little to no DCRA action -a broken criminal justice system that encourages violence and crime [/b] Really, what else is there? [/quote] What are you even talking about? None of the bolded are true to the extent that DC is any worse than Boston, New York, Miami, or LA. 1. I'll take a statue of a Mayor who had a drug problem over a traitorous, slave-owning Civil war criminal any day. 2. Hookers? LOL You might as well site at least a quarter of the House of Representatives. 3. One Party rule? Have you looked into the party system in the Red states that the Repubs gerrymandered? You're misinformed. If you even live within the city limits (which I doubt), you're probably a recent transplant from a Red state and or a Trump supporter. [/quote] Of course, you are a DC resident. It is your mindset that made it as dysfucntional as it is today. And that is light years ahead of the condition of the city under Mayor for Life, Barry. I can't wait to see his statue erected. Every chance I get, I am going to stop by and kick him in the shins for everytime he punched my ass on the Council elevator. [/quote]
