Actually we do need a new FBI building. It is literally falling apart. The federal govt started looking for a site about 10 years ago and it has become very political. Maryland and Virginia have pulled out the stops to land the building on its soil and basically it is so touchy politically that no site has been chosen - it is a hot potato. Maryland seems to think it belongs to them and has been very insistent.

But the building itself is falling apart. It is about 50 years old or so and was not built very well, unfortunately. It is also a security risk since it is so close to the street. They have wanted to move its operations to a more secure location ever since 9/11.

I have a much better idea. Put it in Lebanon, KS or Belle Fourche, SD.

Why these places, you might ask? Well, first, they are out of the DC Swamp. Second, Lebanon is the closest town to the geographic center of the continental US, or Belle Fourche is the closest town to the that point when you include Hawaii and Alaska.
