The easiest and quickest fix is to move all the HQ out of Washington DC and place them in a remote location with horrid winters.
Most employees would bail in a hurry.
Relocate the White House to Camp David.
Congress should meet in Chicago. Basically, it's in mid-America so the location is perfect.
The Supreme Court should be relocated to somewhere like Santa Fe, New Mexico.
We should eliminate most of our federal agencies. But we should keep a couple of them like the IRS but relocate it to Denver, Colorado.
The Pentagon can probably stay as it is. The MIC will disappear if the swamp is gone in D.C.
Hays, Kansas
It’s the perfect place!

Prolly right but many of them would choose to hang on as they can live like kings outside of DC on their more than generous salaries and benefits. Those who simply cannot tolerate the idea of living in Flyover Land will have to face the harsh reality of having to actually produce and compete in the workplace. That bit of reality is a very frightening prospect for most feds.
Indeed. DC and its VA and MD adjacent environs are immune to the effects bad government policy has on the economy. Construction/improvement is always under way everywhere, commerce is booming, government employees who form the core of its population are oblivious.
It has degenerated into a “us” against “them” attitude and they fight tooth and nail to maintain the status quo - even helping the evil parts of government (i.e., Democrat control) commit completely and horrible acts against Americans.
Most Federal Employees are not located in Washington DC so moving headquarters would only effect a relative minority of Gov workers.
The best approach is to eliminate their positions and fire the majority of them. 90% are not needed and is a waste of taxpayer money. In addition, eliminate the government union.
