There were reports out there saying that there were 8th graders that couldn't fully read. Public Schools, and even some Charter Schools, are also infested with gangs that start recruiting children as young as age 8. Forgive me, but cheaper college tuition is not worth it to me. We're moving out of DC when we have kids.

I can bitch about taxes as much as anyone else, but the real issue now is the gun amendment and also the extra seat that would be added to Utah. Eleanor Holmes Norton says that she's not done with the fight, but it's not going to change while I'm here. DC is too much of a transient town and is just a stop for a lot of people on their way to somewhere else. I'm not sure if they'll get a population of stable homeowners that really care about the issue and will be willing to fight a long battle for a vote. Sad, but I think it's kinda true.

Wow.
