Trip into American history

Thousand upon thousands visit Washington DC each year. Not only US citizens but people from all over the world. They not only want to see the history within the numerous museums, but the place that makes decisions which mold the world politics.
Washington DC is just another big city, but yet it's not. There is NO unemployment because of the abundance of new government jobs that magically pop up all the time. And this ain't new with this adminstration.
Besides the hundreds of students on class trips, tourists in tour buses, there were thousands of dark colored three-piece suits carrying briefcases everywhere. I wondered what they were doing... lobbyists, businessmen or maybe SPIES!
It was not my first time to DC. It was my first trip to Mount Vernon and Williamsburg. Away from the majority of tourists, we enjoyed relaxing strolls along the same paths George Washington walked, pondering an infant country's newly acquired freedom. But nothing hit me as hard as the words of Thomas Jefferson inside his memorial. These were men FAR ahead of their time. If they could only see the USA today. What would they think?
