>>959358>>959368Such a shame it must be. Boston, due to it's history, culture, and geographical location, had (and in many respects, still has) the potential to become one of the most or the most desirable city in North America to live in, but it's continually squandered time and time again by clueless mayors and governors. The loss of the Olympic bid should have been a wake-up call for MA politicians but instead the corruption and the greasing of palms will continue as always. Biggest example is GE's move to Boston. MA taxpayers will be on the line for hundreds of millions of dollars in subsidizing and tax credits to GE (one of the most profitable mega-corps in the world) which will provide fuck all in terms of real benefits to the city. Meanwhile the infrastructure continues to crumble, schools are losing funding and closing, homelessness is on the rise, and the cost of living continues to go sky high due to chink and russian investment.
