So Washington, D.C. wants to be a state...
PNQ: Opinions?
The latest news is that the supporters want to name the new state "Washington, Douglass Commonwealth", which I think is a horrible name.
Personally I'm in favor of retrocession, i.e. returning everything except the formal government buildings to Maryland. And even if I wanted it to be a state, I'd just call it Columbia.
