41. Good Grief

Your first fact is true.

Would it surpise you to know that DC citizens have voting respresenation in the House three times that lasted on and off for over 80 years?

Where does it say in the Constitution DC citizens are to pay federal taxes but citizens in US territories (like Guam or US Virgin Islands) don't?

Where does it say in your constitution I have to sell my property to get representation in your government?

You could be a poster child for King George.......if you don't like the colonies....move........

And yes, I'm well aware of what constitutional amendment gave DC electoral presidential college votes (hint---it happened when the President at the time was drafting us to a war we were dying in and paying taxes for).

The constitutional convention I was refering to was for our STATEHOOD.
