IMHO, yes and I am not alone.
Building a new capital in Appalachia would move it away from the ultralibs in the DC area and bring the workings of government back to the people. A low crime area would be a lot better for the senators that would travel to Welch, WV or wherever to do their business, and would provide needed government jobs to the coal miners who have been put out of work. I think someone who spent their career in a pit digging for and transporting King Coal would appreciate a job as a lobbyist.

Is It Time To Move the Capital?
Crime, disorder, and an irresponsible local government are not Washington's only liabilities.
