Comment on: After fall, Mass. insurersâ auto rates up again - Business - The Boston Globe
This is nonsense. If you have health insurance, which 99% of MA residents do, that will cover your medical bills. Granted, it won't cover lost wages. But if your injuries were severe enough that you h more »

Comment on: Sex assault case haunts gambling director - Metro - The Boston Globe
You have a guy here against whom *allegations* were made, but that's it. There was no corroborating evidence. There was insufficient evidence to prosecute. The key thing, to me, is that the officers i more »
