Move to the nation’s capital, the District of Columbia!

Yes, you’ll pay some of the highest income taxes in the nation (8.5% over $60,000), and a general sales tax of 6% (soon a 7% general rate, and already 10% on restaurants and alcohol). True, you might look at the city’s complete incompetence in once again being unable to clear even the most important roads on snow days after a major but not historically significant storm. But consider what else the district offers you:

• A 911 call center that regularly doesn’t answer your call, regularly sends first responders to the wrong address, and whose leadership has been staffed by Mayor Muriel Bowser‘s most incompetent political allies.

• City services that decide on a whim whether they want to do their job. Which is to say, whether they want to pick up your trash or just leave it in an alley, and then attempt to fine you for the privilege of their laziness. Oh, and bestow you with trash........
