The DC bill will be overturned in Court, making it's effects void.
No, it will not be overturned in court. And if so then the people that live in DC shouldn't have to pay taxes.
By that logic, any people under 18 that work shouldn't have to pay taxes either.
Taxation without representation!!!!!!
No, because they are representation, their senators and congress(wo)men, they just can't vote yet. Unlike DC they don't have a senator or congress(wo)men representative.
Nor should they. DC is not a federal district, not a state.
The only reason why Republican oppose this is because they know that DC would elected a Democrat in office. And that is more then likely why you oppose it. I could care less if they voted a republican or a democrat. This people have to pay taxes, but yet the government tell them they can't get rep in congress or the senate. It is wrong!
DC always going Democrat is not even part of the reason for my opposition. I do oppose it because it is the only reason for the Republicans' Democrats' opposition support.
So you support DC statehood then?
