An independent political action committee supporting Josh Kraft is behind the first TV ad in Boston's mayoral race. But does its attacks on Mayor Wu tell the whole truth?
At this point I didn’t even drive in Boston anymore, I take the commuter rail into the city and subway from there. Why people are acting like that’s an absurd possibility is astonishing to me. Yes, traffic in Boston sucks, but mainly because too many people from outside would rather drive in and complain about the traffic they’re causing than the cheaper and much easier alternative of taking transit into the city. As for the actual residents, there’s great public transportation, just fucking take it. You really wanna pay all that money for parking and vehicle maintenance just to sit at every red light to get somewhere maybe 3 min faster? Get a grip. If I lived in the city the first thing I’d do is sell my car and use my electric assist bike for everything, I already use it to get to work in the Metrowest, you can do it in the city.
