<p>Are you actually whining about this? :confused: You do realize DC residents pay taxes without having an actual representative in Congress.</p>

6

<p>You do realize that our actual representatives do little-nothing for us- right?</p>

<p>Right, so if our representative democracy didn’t exist we’d be just as well off as we are now, huh?</p>

<p>I believe he/she means in the Senate, DC has no representation. Well no, real representation. They do have shadow senators I believe, but they don’t have power to do anything.</p>

<p>That would be news to me, but I went to hs in Wash D.C. a long long time ago. Back then it was most definitely true that any decent college was going to be out of state, and our pubic hs (woodrow wilson) did a very good job of preparing its students to go to top colleges.</p>

<p>Have you seen a Washington D.C. license plate? What does the inscription for your state say? Wash D.C. reads, “Taxation without representation”</p>

<p>Interesting - it is a new program (1999)</p>

<p>DCTAG was created by Congress in 1999 by the District of Columbia College Access Act (PL 106-98) and amended by DC College Access Improvement Act 2002 for the purpose of expanding higher education choices for college bound residents of the District of Columbia.</p>

<p>DC residents get in-state tuition for all US public universities. And our reps in congress don’t have any voting power.</p>
