Not quite how the market works. What it actually does is inflate pay, which ripples along the chain and further inflates pay umtil sole services are priced out. And prices go up everywhere else. I know people who commute from Palmer to Boston daily because housing in Boston is too expensive

If people couldn't afford housing the prices would come down.

That’s why they hit my husband up for 10 bucks of overpayment? How close is UI to crumbling?

If we had the housing and transit that people need, we'd be unstoppable

People can't afford housing in Boston but can afford housing in Worcester. What if you relieve the pressure on Boston by developing Worcester. Perhaps even Springfield.

Too big? What? For what it is? A city? What does that even mean?

It does, but it's primary issue is geography. It's too big to continue to be what it is.

Are you trying to equate mineral wealth to an entire CITY? You know Boston does a lot of different things, right?

This just sounds like trying to make the mess that's in blue states equivalent to the mess that's in red states. I'll take the mess that's in Massachusetts compared to the mess that's in places like Idaho, where they're passing abortion trafficking bills.

Wasn't aware of that. Like I said, "wouldn't be surprised if", was not a statement of fact. Was just a guess.

I would love to see the diagrams without including the farm subsidies and/or Medicare.
Overall very generic not much of a substance article.
