[quote=Anonymous][quote]I infer that you’re happy to gamble with other people’s lives, schools and home equity on the off chance that you’ll end up a beneficiary of this exercise. I think it’s a giant crap shoot. MoCo isn’t so essential to the region that people faced with an unattractive option in MCPS can’t and won’t look elsewhere.[/quote] I agree with this. The DCC zealots that all think they will benefit from taking down the Bethesda, Potomac or Rockville schools will be in for a big surprise. Dropping the property values and pushing the higher earners out of the county is not going to make Silver Spring suddenly attractive. Lessor areas only do well when the more desirable ones become too expensive so people are forced into the next level down. When the top falls, the bottom falls faster. As individuals, they won't benefit in the end. They will enjoy much higher taxes to make up for the even larger shortfall. [/quote]
