Is Boston's BIG DIG the greatest disaster in American history? How much will it cost in the end?

Shouldn't someone go to jail?

Yes, the Big Dig is a disaster, of the kind you would expect among illiterate bushmen, but it pales in comparison to other disasters such as the Bush presidency disaster.

I agree , I vote to send the states reps to jail, humm now who would that be??!! ROFL

Well, I wouldn't put it up there with say, oh, I don't know, slavery, but as far as architectural disasters, yes. It's really far up there. It's already cost more than $14 billion and it does appear that some folks are going to be charged with criminal negligence.

I was in my last year at BU when the Big Dig was started....I now have my Master's Degree and am married with 2 kids...I didn't realize how long it has been since the "work" began and what a colossal mess it turned into! I truly feel for the citizens of the metropolitan Boston area! Between the increase of their taxes, the traffic snarls and the total eye sore on their amazing city...the Big Dig is a Big Disaster. And YES! someone should go to jail for criminal negligence!

Are you a Bostonian?
