Since when have any of these territories, including DC, ever been a state like you thought a state is?
Read up on the laws of the Forest for some good information. Territory is only attached to municipalities. The Articles of Confederation made no provisions for territories. Then Virginia was talked into removing certain lands that now would be described as Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan from their borders and giving these lands as territories to the newly formed United States under its' new constitution.

The new constitution created a municipality to attach these territories to. As states were created they were to be entered on an equal footing with the original 13.

Along around 1840-1850 communism and capitalism created a dipole to divide the country along. Slavery and non-slavery created another dipole of division. Workers (communism) and owners (capitalism) each had their own parties and to this day they are still engaged in a battle to the death (Dem's and Repub's) even though the carcass has been whittled to the bone. The battle lines are WHO is going to take office and by proxy which side is to have control of the leftovers. At this stage it doesn't matter at all which party is going to have control because each one is bound and determined to continue the charade. More important is the question "How am I going to hold the office holder responsible for his actions?" If you vote then you have agreed to go along with the will of the majority. If you don't vote and simply ask for an original oath of office and bond you have at least established that you are not represented by the actor in office and (in theory anyway) you can hold him/her responsible in a court of law for any injury he causes you.

Just another way of saying get out of the consent mode.
