Is this a joke?  I am from Arlington, I live in Arlington. I am currently on a nationwide tour looking for a new place to open my business after fighting with city officials and their demand of ~$75G upfront “fees and mitigation” costs before granting me license to open a simple retail store. 

Instead of finding ways to lower fees to help business, they want their cash up front, first.  In the last 3 months, I have found many cities and towns eager to do business with cheaper cost of living, nicer weather, lower property costs, taxes and fuel costs. Most are investing heavily in infrastructure, roads and buildings, not just collecting money. We keep repeating to ourselves....And why is it exactly are we living in Arlington?

We are on our way home now to pack up and sell. There are so many more places that do more than talk about supporting business, they demonstrate it.
