The Libertarian in me says, "So What?" I don't believe that cities should be spending tax dollars on a playpen for owners and players to play kids games for millions and millions of dollars.
That said, my real question is: Would any of you out there enter in a a contract with Washington D.C.?
Excellent point.
I would, if it were to provide legal services to defend the city from the lawsuits it causes...and Congress was a cosigner. :)
