DC is the Best Office Real Estate Market in US - Oh Crap!

If Washington DC is experiencing the best office real estate market in the country . . . click on title above or cut and paste link from below)

Does that mean the government is likely cutting back or growing?
Does that mean even more taxpayer dollars are being thrown away on big government?
How do you feel about that?
I'm pissed!
Since the current administration took office in Jan 2009:

We have seen our debt grow by over 40%
We have seen more Americans out of work than ever in our history
We have more people accepting food stamps than ever in our history
and yet DC and Wall St are booming

How long will you be okay with this?

My friend, Kirk Nace, has long said that we are a nation of followers, afraid to think, afraid to question and willing to just follow along as long as someone else takes care of us, and things are "good enough" because we are apathetic and almost uniformly feel entitled to so much that we haven't earned. Can he be right about yet another oh so ugly reality? Please tell me no.
