Yeah, the power structure in DC has gotten way too comfortable for the people living there. Look at how unaffected the DC housing market was by the crisis over the last 6 years.

The people in Washington aren't going to relinquish any of their power, though. An Article V convention of the states is about the only hope.

You mean the same way most American cities went?

Sorry, I should have said "least affected".

Then when you consider that Washington moved UP vs all other cities in that graph, DC has done really well.

My point remains. Thanks for the data to refer to next time. :)

I agree about a constitutional convention ... trouble is, that sword cuts both ways. It's a great opportunity for those you agree with to get major changes through ... but it's a great opportunity for those you disagree with.
