NYC is important, but its a pebble compared to the importance and power of DC which is the size of an elephant in comparison.

Give me a break. The people who pick the US government live in New York. The peolpe who decide when and where the US military gets used live in New York. The people who decide what happens with the US economy live in New York. There is no Washington DC without Wall Street, money makes the world go round. Do you really think that the people we call the administration have more power in this country than the banks and major coporations?
Maybe in 1870.
