While Ilinois is an ongoing cesspool of corruption..it is not Constitutionally mandated as is the District. Home Rule should never have been granted here. It has been rampantly corrupt since day one and a taxpayers disgrace.

The only reason DC had such strict federal oversight in the first place was because of the huge 19th century corruption when they had a mayor the first time around.

This has been a failed experiment. The US should have located the Capital in a "real city" or, at the very least, made the district so small that only the barest skeleton of a population would have been allowed to live there.
