"Members of Congress Illegally Milk D.C. Tax Break"

The actual article requires a subscription, but I have a good summary of the article here. Some representatives are claiming D.C. residence for tax purposes even though they're (obviously) supposed to be permanent residents of their states.

Pretty lame under any circumstances, but given 1) the economic crisis and 2) D.C.'s lack of voting representation, I'd call this seriously uncool (yes, that's my politically accurate term for it).

I say kick them out of Congress for it. It's time to set examples!
