[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What's wrong with having a business guy as mayor. People forget that businesses pay a lot of money in taxes. I employ a lot of people here. We could just as easily move to VA or MD and it would be much cheaper. I also live in the city. I want great city services. It should be really easy to open businesses here. It's not. It's really hard. Why are we so business unfriendly? I know people complained when the city stopped rental assistance and the moratorium on people not paying rent. Well, most of the folks who own rental houses and small apartment buildings need you to get out if you can't pay. I'm sorry but personally, I need to pay my mortgage. We can't help everyone. We don't have the money. I used to run the DC school buses. Trust me when I tell you, there are a lot of trifling people and parents in this city.[/quote] Business friendly city = where the business owners can pay $8 per hour and commit endless wage theft and throw temper tantrums when the local government tries to make it easier and safer for non drivers to get around town. No thanks.[/quote]
