Jasper,

I totally agree that the ANCs are getting in the way of something that's best for the city but getting rid of them is not politically feasible. If this Mayor is serious about promoting the tech industry, he'll spend less money on silly giveaways like the Living Social deal, and more political capital getting the nuts-and-bolts right. Like, telling the ANCs there will be serious repercussions for their districts if they don't get with the program and allow DC's universities to expand tech education.

In addition to whipping the ANC's in line with his vision, the Mayor needs to get a plan together to implement the tech education facility slated for St. E's and improve UDC's tech offerings. There's a lot of work to be done with DC's educations system at all levels and the Living Social money would surely have been better spent elsewhere, like in tech education...a service that would actually benefit DC residents and not just big business.
