My God you are dense bucky. The DC area had plenty of money, just like Los Angeles, San Fran, Minneapolis, Portland, NY City, Seattle, Chicago, etc. They spent it on liberal things. In the case of Portland, Seattle, LA, San Fran, NCY, Chicago, they spent the money on attracting the homeless. Free food, drugs, healthcare, phones and when needed shelter. Then they spent billions on illegal immigrants. Why would any sane adult in their right mind give any democrat run city one dollar more?
Seriously, you can't be this stupid. Can you?
