[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love that the museums are free. Every time we visit another city and have to pay to go to a museum I'm reminded of how great it is that we can pop in anytime for a quick visit.[/quote] Off topic, but I’m curious: how are these museums funded?[/quote] Where are you from, PP? They are funded by the federal government. And before you try to start something, DC pays more federal taxes than 22 other states (highest per capita) and has over 700,000 residents with no representation in their government, including over 11,000 members of the military. [/quote] You mean the federal government takes tax dollars from hardworking Americans and funds said museums. To the tune of $1 billion dollars. [/quote]
