 ddwibb join:2004-09-02 Holyoke, MA | Poor Boston I live in the poorest city in New England, Holyoke, in the western part of Mass. We send more money to Boston in taxes than we get back. Holyoke is near bankruptcy, crumbling buildings are collapsing into the streets, and Boston could care less. |
 | I agree with you. Western MA (in fact any place west of Rte 128 does not exist to most, if not all of the politicians in Boston. Why does 3/4 of the state have to pay for some project that most of us will never, ever use? |
