MA State Rep. Tim Toomey
So far, anyone who has dared to question the bid organizers has been met with answers that are the equivalent of “trust us.”
In Boston 2024, we see a small group of people promising us that we will all benefit from their success, and that once they have finished throwing a party for the world’s elite, the rest of us will get a crack at the leftovers the next morning. Those of us who have lived through the era of “trickle-down” economics — and who are still waiting, 30 years later, to see any benefit at all from tax cuts for top earners and deregulation of the financial industry — should be wary of this thinking.
