The entire city of Boston is only 48 mi.². The US/Mexico border is roughly 2,000 miles. You guys really think the wall is only going to cost 14 billion?
You definitely did not stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Dear,
This project was managed by NE liberals. What did you expect? It took far less time to send 12 astronauts to the moon and bring them back alive to talk about it.

Take it from someone who lived there for over 50 years...You have no idea what you're talking about!
The Big Dig was a huge undertaking. Imagine digging under a city while that city needs to keep working.
It was a huge project that got even bigger thanks to the Gov. bloat and greedy unions that are so typical in Mass.
There is a saying among the unions "Don't kill the job" meaning that no matter how ridiculous it gets you keep plodding along week after week so everyone gets paid.
Mass has a real problem with Gov. jobs costing much more than they should. Our roads for example cost in excess of $200,000 per mile whereas neighboring states can do the same job for $40,000.
Mass needs a guy like Trump to come in and trim the fat something that I'm sure he will do when it comes to building the wall.
I thought it was brilliant when he signed the order to get the Keystone pipeline going again and he asked "where does the pipe come from"? We want to use American steel.
Trump is a business man at heart.
Comparing the Big Dig to the building of a wall is like comparing apples to oranges.
That job would have taken 18 months in TX at 1/3 the price. Under budget and 2 months early.
Love going to Boston where you'll see a Cop anyplace they are filling a pothole. Or the guys sitting in the toll booths when they no longer collect tolls.
Strong Unions. Expensive Boondoggle projects.
Wow- this must be why Texas has the most uninsured residents of any state, falls far behind MA. in education and other factors, and relies on digging more holes in the ground for "wealth".
If Texas is so good and efficient, why do they need so many illegal immigrants to do all their dirty work?
"Texas ranked last nationally for health care access and affordability"
Yeah, great job! Shows how those with the most (oil, land, resources)...end up with the least, that's an amazing accomplishment.
Maybe someday you can move ahead of being resource dependent (old economies) and come into the future with education, health care, environment and other such measurements which are 21th century. For the suffering people I surely hope so.

Don't Worry Boston, you guys are no longer the dumbest diggers..!!
Seattle and king county just got the public to agree to a 60 BILLION transit program, and a tiny tunnel for a few billions, maybe 5 or some number.
We will be paying that 60 BILLION with property taxes, so sorry for those lower income folk hoping to buy a home, you will have to keep renting.
There will be howls when the new property tax bills come....

Out of curiosity which political party is it that predominately runs the city of Boston, the state of Massachusetts, the city of Seattle and the state of Washington?

With massive overspending and budget overages you know darn well who's running those two asylums.
Those with a big fat D next to their name.
