I know this isn't the right forum for this
But I'll say this and leave. The US is way down the list on scores in academics worldwide. And that's based on an educational progran that's shit to begin with, so who cares if you're first anyway. So saying MA is doing something right is like saying a streetwalker is doing well by spitting after you blow a load in her mouth. She's still a crack addict streetwalker.
The US govt brings the drugs in. 80% of the WORLD'S heroine comes from Afghanistan. Why don't they just burn the fields? The soldiers are right there aren't they? 80% of inmates are there for drugs. Drugs are jobs. Without drugs you'd have to close 80% of prisons, fire 80% of the guards and 80% of cops. You'd have to getbrid of all the halfway houses, rehab centers, counselors. Do you get it yet? Assuming YOU'RE old enough for medicaid since you mentioned it, which I'm not by a decades long shot, I'm mortified that you can't understand this. I'm sure you still vote. Like a really smart, responsible citizen. And debate about which of the 2 people you were given to 'choose' a precious leader from is better than the other. You're unable to see reality. You're foolish world has been created around you. You ARE in a matrix. It's time to grow uo and look around and think like a human should.
[QUOTE=XRay1;4391425]Its confined to a tiny area of Boston.
You've got the Suffolk County House of Corrections there. 3 methodone clinics, and 4 homeless shelters all within a few blocks of there. Allowing the homeless to congregate there reduces the riff raff for the whole city. Take that away from the homeless and you will see them spread out. Having them in a non industrial area affects housing prices.
As far as the government being useless. I'm sure you like your medicare / social security if you are of age to receive it. BTW Mass just voted the best public school system in the country. Looks like Mass is doing something right.[/QUOTE]
What happened to everyone
Almost no one seems to be posting anything of value in MA or RI. Most of anything is people under 20 posts. Lots of places in the area and none are getting noticed. I have posted my adventures but seeing such a lack from others just has me wanting to say why bother.
