Re: The ladder climbing people moving to the DC area are so disgusting I would much rather have the prostitutes, pimps, drug dealers, crackheads, homeless, rats, trash, abandoned buildings and graffiti of the 80s & 90s

For as long as Washington, D.C. has been our nation's capital, people have been moving here to find work. Perhaps you mean since you started working, you’ve learned a few things about the real world and you don’t like it. Try being an example on how “real” people act and maybe you can be a leader in what is good and right.
Of course, there are risks. If you lose your job for being too real and become overdrawn at your bank, they might drop you. If you lose your bank account and owe people money, you’ll never find another job. If you don’t have enough money saved-up for a rainy day and can’t pay your rent or mortgage or taxes, you could lose your home. If that happens, you’ll never be able to get another home again. No one will hire you. No one will rent to you. No one will give you a loan. The government, however, will continue to tax you and the lawyers will tack interest on anything you owe for good measure. This will make it difficult to get out from under and pull yourself up on top again. So, play it carefully.
