[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In general, affluent families don't depend on the lottery. Working class families do. Skipping the line in the lottery is an affront to everyone who depends on the lottery, which is why it was a political hot button. So I disagree with the premise of the story. [/quote] Guess what? Wilson families are "working families" too. Nobody is living off of a trust fund as opposed to a paycheck. Those in DC who are truly wealthy and don't work, go private anyway. It was absolutely an affront to Wilson families - who had to accrue the resources to buy into the Wilson boundary. People who live in small, ugly houses that haven't been updated in decades - but carry an enormous premium because of Wilson are genuinely affronted that he got to buy something brand new and enormous for the same amount of money and still get the same privileges. [/quote] Wait, what? How do we explain Ward 1 decreasing in median income?[/quote]
