It's going to be extra great because unless they pump a bunch of money into Metro, getting to Crystal City is going to be a motherfucker. They cut train service down to every 8 minutes (from every 6) last year due to funding and this is going to make things ten times worse.

Just hoping that housing in Maryland doesn't get as crazy. Helps that my wife and I don't want kids so suddenly buying a house isn't as much of a poo poo show since we don't have to worry about school systems and such when looking around.

It 100% will. If they're bringing ~25k tech jobs that's probably like 20k transplants since the area is at full employment++

They all won't want to live in VA, or more likely won't be able to all live in VA anyway, so they have to go somewhere. And then you've got the regular people that already live in the area looking to buy a house that get priced out.

i always vote for tax increases for schools and infrastructure because i don't care if .3% of my check every month goes to at least maybe possibly fixing this poo poo

but it's just...20k transplants is a lot of loving people, considering they're all mostly going to be high paid white collar jobs

How do you even put the infrastructure in place to support that many folks moving in to an area with a high cost of living? Starbucks Baristas don't just magically appear.

You don’t.

Look at the Bay Area when they dropped the Facebook HQ in a vacant Sun building with traffic in the surrounding area already at max capacity.

It was "just" sexual assault.










I mean he's probably committed a rape at some other point in his life, so you're technically correct.

The US border has become a dumping ground for everyone’s political problems. Thank you. It's true, and these are the best and the finest. When the US deploys its people, they're not sending their best. They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing guns. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.

Ya know for something that is an existential threat to the entire country I haven't been hearing much from the propaganda arm of the Republican party about that invading army marching on our southern border recently. What ever happened to that? Did we bigly MAGA and solve the problem or something? Weird.

I'm inwardly gloating because my maga family pushed me a few weeks ago about my opinion on the caravan and I told them I thought it was being played up as a political issue because of the election, where I was greeted with a bunch of "What do you know, you don't even watch the news." I'm also inwardly crying because I know they are too stupid to figure out that I was right.
