Red-Blue is supposedly projected to cost 850 million, 100 million towards that probably would have been a better use of the funds.

It’s not the place of private citizens to directly fund public infrastructure projects. Besides, you’re still $750m short. You should be glad that Boston has this caliber of healthcare institution and deep-pocketed donors committed to its success.

When you or a loved one has some kind of horrific diagnosis would you rather go to BMC?

Given that Herb was one of the most vociferous business opponents of A Line restoration back when that was being fought in the courts 30 years ago and personally lobbied Menino to get the residual emergency pocket track ripped out in front of his Brighton Ave. dealership...yeah, I'll say LOL.

It’s called having standards. And it always amuses me how people shit on MGH and BWH yet at the first sign that their illness is more complex than a hangnail that’s where they insist on going.

This is where the money actually goes. The USA is just a playground for oligarchs to purchase brands. The image of MGB, supposedly representing two of the best hospitals in the world, selling itself like a whore to an autocratic, backward monarchy ought inspire protests and revulsion. Yet, nobody cares.
