[quote=Anonymous]If I could be bothered to run for office, my platform would be: 1. Park the statehood because it hasn’t happened even when Dems had a full majority; park it until comprehensive studies on pros and cons and scenarios of what would happen have been done, Dems have the full majority again; then referendum first 2. Declare DC a tax haven (no representation other than what we already have, no taxation), like many cities in the world (e.g., Zug Switzerland). The city will grow rich and attractive quickly 3. Introduce Universal basic income for all DC-born citizens, means-tested 4. Build in and mandate Affordable quality housing throughout the city 5. Monitor and adjust Since there would be no more tax, #1 statehood may happen a lot faster By the time statehood rolls around, I’d have probably sold my skyrocketed properties and move to the actual Switzerland [/quote]
