[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is rhe DC mayor supposed to make the federal government do anything? Federal employees were fired or pushed out, whole agencies were eliminated, contracts cancelled, and funding to NGOs cut. That's why so many jobs were lost. Add in tech woes and there you have it. [/quote] Whoever is mayor should act like a mayor or governor anywhere else and work to attract businesses to provide. I know that’s a foreign concept in DC where the assumption is that jobs (and a base to tax) will just appear because of federal funding [/quote] JLG just wants to beat up on businesses and then act like it's some sort of unknowable magical force that makes jobs appear or disappear. [/quote] Whatever the business is, we need guardrails on it![/quote]
