Craigslist ad offers DC Capitol sublet for $1,000

Get in while you can.

All my favorite politicians tell me that the people’s biggest enemy is waste.

I am, therefore, constitutionally uplifted by a sublet ad that has appeared on the DC Craigslist site.

It offers an 775,000-square-foot abode, with 8 bedrooms, for a mere $1,000.

This is perhaps the bargain of the century. It is a steal.

The word “steal” is currently most associated with the politicians in Congress, who still get paid during the government shutdown, while many residents and tourists are denied basic services.

How heartening, then, that the building on offer is, in fact, the US Capitol.

The ad sells the property very well: “So my roommates all left because of a job thing and I need to make rent. I really think this place is great and I’ve been living here for a while (incumbency FTW!). I don’t want to leave but the utilities are a real bitch to afford on your own.”
