14 Billion Doesn’t Buy What It Used To

I am no longer certain how tons country wide interest this tale has gotten but there has been a tragedy that took place in Boston’s Big Dig on July tenth. One of the ceiling panels that are hung in the tunnels of the most important production project inside the international, the “Big Dig”, fell and crushed a automobile killing a girl internal. The panels are 20’ x 20” and reports have said they weigh anywhere from three to twelve tons.

This is a large story here in Massachusetts where I live, because it should be. Politicians are once again the use of this to their advantage to both make themselves look higher or the other birthday party appearance worse. Everyone in this united states of america is the victim, due to the fact it’s miles all tax money, despite the fact that the girl that died and her new husband are at once victimized.

The invoice for the assignment is about $14 billion at this point. I am now not certain how an awful lot of this is federal money however it’s miles within the billions for certain. Since it has opened there were leaks within the tunnels and now this debacle.

What this mission is, is an example of ways poorly our government is run simply on a smaller scale. It isn’t any secret here in Massachusetts of the way a good deal money become wasted on this task. Governor Romney needed to create a group answerable for pursuing the contractors that had been overpaid and trying to collect money they ought to never have received. The tale of our government, which is apparent while you look at the 8 trillion dollar deficit, you spend all you need and have no manipulate and then try to restore it after. This is how things get so out of control. If things had been carried out efficiently the challenge could have value a pair billion much less, they wouldn’t need to pay humans to get better the other couple billion, and the paintings could have possibly been completed right.

But, we’re again to reality. A woman has been killed. The quantity of ceiling tiles with troubles is increasing with the continuing inspections. The last rely I heard turned into over two hundred tiles which are coming free. Governor Romney needed to document emergency law to take over control of the selection on whilst the tunnel in question will be safe to reopen due to the fact the Chairman of the MA Turnpike Authority, Matt Amarello, has been saying it’s far secure and it definitely isn’t.

This specific tale may be very tough to me because I am continuously analyzing our government and trying to open people’s eyes to how incompetent our authorities is from top to backside. I maintain to make as robust of a case as I can for human beings to begin seeing that they need to pay greater attention to who they vote for in upcoming elections. We can’t simply permit the politicians to spend, spend, spend our money with out a outcomes. It nonetheless bothers me that our federal government contracts with China to construct some of our maximum precious weapons to guard our us of a. Yes, China, a communist united states of america, is chargeable for constructing some of the weapons we use to shield the united states in instances of struggle.

So I ask you, please do not see this current twist of fate in Massachusetts as simply an coincidence. It is greater than that. It is evidence that the human beings we opt for to run our u . S . Are without a doubt incompetent. They make poor selection after terrible choice and the residents of the u . S . A . Are those who suffer. Use this as motivation to make higher picks for the duration of the following election. If you haven’t voted in beyond elections because you didn’t sense you had a candidate worth your vote I would love to say you are right. There wasn’t a candidate worthy of your vote. But, you need to make a declaration in upcoming elections. Cast a write-in vote. If you don’t know who to vote for write my call down. I understand I can do a higher activity.
