Good article.

Washington DC, the mecca of bureaucracies, is a big feed trough from which the denizens of DC and the surrounding affluent states belly up to the bar and gorge themselves. The rest of the country just doesn’t get it even though its right there in their face.

Four of this nation's five richest counties...and seven out the ten richest counties...are suburbs of Washington,DC,the *one* major city that produces *nothing* of value...*nothing* that you can hold in your hands.

Yep I live on one of those ‘got rich’ counties listed above and I occasionally point this out. It’s a big party here while other parts of America are sinking in debt and foreclosures.

This is why I don’t think that Republicans shouldnt be demanding the repealing the automatic spending cuts that they passed while claiming they want spending cuts. They are a big part of the problem.

DC to the rest of the food stamp country :”Let them eat cake”

[what's up]

Surprised to see Marin County no longer on that list.

And what's with Los Alamos? Why is wealth there growing so fast?
