DC (WOW 38K) DE (24K) MN (19K), CT (16K), NJ (17).
CA and TX, #1 and #2 in total are just 10K per capita.
And good ol' FL (9K)!

We need to quit printing money and spending what we don't have!
Good too see everyone on the same or close to the same page. What is going to happen ? This is the big question, if in 2 years, 4, 6 ? How bad is it going to get... I have a hard time think we last more than 5 years...

We need to stop giving tax breaks to the wealthy and spending throw away money on the military. It is only prudent to repair, improve and bring infrastructure into the 21st century after natural disasters.
