Re: Boston...

Sure, there were cost overruns and it took about 15 years.. but all in all, I think it was money very well spent.
The taxpayers of the USA are glad that you're enjoying the road we paid for. Spending someone else's money is ALWAYS money well spent!

(note, I'm not picking on Boston here per se, there's so much waste and fraud in government spending it's not worth discussing. The Big Dig is just one of the biggest and most visible boondoggles in history -- this coming from someone who lives near a city that was build on fraud and corruption.)

 The Big Dig is used in MBA project management classes compared to the building of the empire state building, and the chunnel.

Guess which 1 is the butt of the joke?

Sure the end results are great, but oh how efficient to the detriment of the rest of the country.
