[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The District was founded as an empty space that would be filled by people representing populations elsewhere. There was no industry here other than that necessary to support the growing government. There is no culture or history of business except those that prosper through federal contracts. [/quote] False. Both Georgetown and Alexandria were cities that predated the founding of the District of Columbia. The economies of both cities centered around their ports and trade. Maryland in particular was once the largest tobacco producer of all the colonies. You should take a trip down the St. Mary’s. [/quote]
