The District of Columbia = A stinking miasma of political corruption and staggering government inefficiency.
Were it not for Ward Three, the National Capitol Mall area and the CBD, DC would be a third world nation. It is a national shame. But, the District's pathetic state has been wholeheartedly endorsed by the Democrats in Congress and in the city itself.
DC is New Orleans without the levees.
Too bad. Because then maybe we could blow up the levees for real! LOL
