From the article on the sewer failure:

DIVERS??!!
I am curious how this sudden 10K sewer fix fits into the new sewering we are now supposed to provide to enable Vince D’Anna and his pal Mario Capanno make a killing developing east of Route 1 and the Thousand Acre Marsh.
We spend trillions on defense on boondoggle weapon system, things we don’t need, things that don’t work et al but we can’t find the funds to protect the public health with adequate waste water treatment infrastructure. Sad.
Not sad, Mouse…outrageous. It is the planned result of the rich and their allies in the State Legislature. Money talks. And those weapon systems we don’t need? The proceeds are needed to line the coffers of you know who.
