    If all the city does is think of more ways to spend money and tax people more, instead of weeding out waste, inefficiencies and corruption, then DC will drive out people who pay taxes, create quality jobs and want access to retail businesses. If all it thinks about is taxing for more revenues, instead of spending on services DELIVERED in a cost effective manner and with a high return on investment, then the city will not grow and its citizens will continue to suffer. The greatest investment of the city could be in high quality education. Instead it continues to tolerate powerful teachers' unions that stop all efforts to terminate teachers who are serious underperformers. When DC employees commit fraud and felonies by taking unemployement while employed and the person in charge just says we need to straighten that out, we know that we have leadership that is not committed to excellence and we live in a very costly and very ineffcient .city.
