If people want to serve in government, they need to be far away from cosmopolitan coastal cities and in the middle of our country's plains. They need to be detached from the elites of the world and focused on service. My suggestion is: between Kearney and North Platte, NE. Right dead center of the country, also a great defensive position. What's yours?

I agree that it should be in the middle of the country.
Me too. Makes sense to choose Kansas or Nebraska.
The founders agreed to because at one time DC was basically the middle of the country...as we expanded westward this became less and less true
Trust Kansas.
Go Chiefs!
It's gonna look like the puppy bowl!
Ever heard of dealing capital cities. U can have Washington as the ceremonial capital but then distribute all other functions around the country
Or a nice parking lot
Do you have a good link for that concept? Sounds interesting.
I half pulled the distribute certain things out of my ass, but there are countries out there that have dual capital cities. However I suggest expanding it to say maybe put things like defense in heartland usa, break out congress and the senate in 2 different locations. The judicial system in another location, and then u can say keep the pres in the white house in DC

I’m good with Mar-A-Lago
Fine for the White House, but impractical for the Capitol.
Make DC a National Park - get the government out of there and put them in center of country so we can watch from all sides.
Exactly my point. George Washington's plan was sullied by the Eye. We should keep it as a museum in his honor.
Agree - keep the statues and history and get rid of the politicians. A win win for America.
The Government needs to be decentralized and split up into sections. Part of it in the North, part of it in the South and than Midwest and then West Coast
Denver was going to be a NWO Capital City if DIA construction peculiarities hold out to be significant.
So choosing Denver would be the best neener neener neener ever.
Muslim tradition is to plant a mosque on a On a conquered target.
Let's appropriate a custom and piss them off.
I say Texas, people are less likely to fuck around when they are surrounded by armed citizens.
Texas has the express option to leave the Union at any time. I don't think they would give that up for the Capitol. I wouldn't after this shit show.
yes, South Dakota would be good. there are very few elites, sparsely populated. people are nice/have common sense. not a lot of distractions so the politicians would have to focus!
it's the 17th largest state.
Mt Rushmore is in Keystone SD/elevation 1745 ft & George Washington's spot is #17 on the trail.
JFK Jr. had Mt. Rushmore on his survial guide to the future edition of George Magazine, so sure it plays a part in the plan https://themarshallreport.wordpress.com/2021/02/07/jfk-jr-how-did-george-know/
Rapid City has a President's museum featuring JFK.
AND South Dakota is shaped like a Q🥳🇺🇸
I totally agree!! A new US Capitol in the middle of the US would help break up the political cabal of the North East. Spread it our all over the US!
Yes!

Just be mindful that any capitol will attract those desiring to gain from , feed off, manipulate by association to the capital and the people and organizations (bureaucracies) of power. I do see the value in periodic reshuffling. Vigilance from generation to generation, parents to children is a requirement til the end of the age.
A wise man once said: ....that in any bureaucratic organization there will be two kinds of people":
First, there will be those who are devoted to the goals of the organization. Examples are dedicated classroom teachers in an educational bureaucracy, many of the engineers and launch technicians and scientists at NASA, even some agricultural scientists and advisors in the former Soviet Union collective farming administration.
Secondly, there will be those dedicated to the organization itself. Examples are many of the administrators in the education system, many professors of education, many teachers union officials, much of the NASA headquarters staff, etc.
The Iron Law states that in every case the second group will gain and keep control of the organization. It will write the rules, and control promotions within the organization.

As a result, a continual deliberate effort to resist this trend is required.
I think this is a fair point. Also, it's endemic that an administrative center would attract the second group. Moving the capitol to the hinterlands would definitely reshuffle things, but how do you manage the continual moving of that center?
One option is that the capitol can be mobile. Move to a different city with each new President, or every 5-10 years or so.
Nice places why wreck them.
Original 13 colonies or gay
If the capitol is moved to Kansas, Nebraska, or South Dakota, the elite will follow. Unfortunately, there's no anti elite spray.
You're correct, but they would be detached from NYC and the rest of the east coast. There is no glamour living in the high, windy plains. They must really want to be of service. The closest Babylon is Denver... not Baltimore lolz. It's a major improvement for us.
It will bring a massive influx of liberal federal employees. Bad idea for us.
There is a sign near hutchinson kansas that is the middle point between coasts. One of the early mercury astronauts wanted a space exhibit to be accesible to everyone in the US so he donated a lot of gear and got corporate entities such as Dillon's which is based in hutchinson to create the Cosmosphere in hutchinson.
Ive been to the LBJ space center many times as well as the air and space Smithsonian in DC. They pale in comparison to the Cosmosphere in Hutchinson, KS.
When Gus Grissom's Liberty Bell was recovered from the ocean, where did they send it for forensic analysis?
The Cosmosphere in Hutchinson, KS. They concluded that the explosive bolts on the hatch did malfunctuon and Gus was telling truth.
If you want to see a real space exhibit that is amazing, visit that small town. Also on way into town you will pass through a town called Yoder. There is a bakery there run by amish that has the best cinnamon rolls. Aldo their is a diner called country crossing run by mennonites that is the best home cooked meal ever.
Trust the Captain...the food in this area is absolutely amazing!!
When you walk through the front doors of the Cosmosphere there is a SR-71 blackbird suspended from the ceiling that is low enough to touch. Very cool.
Florida
It will bring a massive influx of liberal federal employees. Bad idea for us
Saint Louis, Mo. Where it should have been from the start.
Keep DC. Clean it out and start over.
Hell to the no. Let's put it in El Paso Texas... just off the Puente de las Américas / El Paso BOTA
