Also it has all the conveniences and restaurants that are in NYC without the New York claustrophobia.

Why is that so funny? There is some cool arse neighborhoods in DC. Pussy galore. You aren't far from a handful of other cool arse cities. Ton of money there.
I lived there for many years. It has cool things, but it also has rampant violence, multiple gangs (including the largest MS 13 population on the east coast), legions of foreigners who DGAF about anything and its shitty traffic ranks #2 in the nation, second only to L.A.

The women are no hotter than those in any other major city. "Cool arse cities?" Like Baltimore? Philly? Yeah, good luck.

I've seen hotter women walking across the campus at LSU.

Well my top 5 cities I'd consider leaving Nola for would be, NYC, BayArea, DC, Chicago, SD, and possibly could be talked in to a few others

It disgusts me that DC is such a wealthy area. it produces nothing and lives off the backs of others. Parasites.

Well that's not actually true. Lots of tech wealth, lots of law that doesn't necessarily deal with government work, finance etc.

but you have to admit that it's like an elephant graveyard for almost anyone that ever had any pull as a "public servant" to gravitate up there to sell their connections to the highest bidder

Absolutely. It's like old college football stars stay in T-Town or auburn because they'd be useless anywhere else. However that's just a few people in the grand scheme of the population.

No it's not. It's a metro area of 10m. I bet there are less than a thousand people who who are true revolving door types making any real money.

not trying to argue, that reminds me of the old stat about 1%, or however a small % of the population has all of the wealth and all of the power, the rest are the proletariat

You talking about the Chinese Pub in McLean? My brother lived over there. The owner used to give me free food.

It was the only game in town after McKeever's closed.
