Everyone who says that we need to get rid of these holidays are morons like this guy from west bum fuck...we have history in this city and were going to celelbrate it...pretty sonn well have a declared yuppie day for people like this guy coming into my city
@cbanksy9 the men who did the bulk of the fighting and dying on breed's hill were from central mass and southern new hampshire. the evacuation of boston was the result of the brilliant strategy of washington, a virginian. and you can thank all those "bum fuck" towns in western mass for causing enough trouble in the 1780s that america's leaders decided to sit down and write something called the constitution...maybe you've heard of it.
They have to do with the recession because they cost the 99% who don't get a paid day off on them $5-$6 million.
It's especially sad for politicians like Sen. "Jackie White Tie" Hart to offer such lame justifications for this special perk in a recession when people are being laid off, gov't services are being cut, and taxes are being raised.
Don't worry, you can still celebrate any holiday you want, it just means gov't offices in Suffolk County will be open- just like everybody else.
Other counties don't want a day off and aren't filling the pot holes (that money went to the Big Dig!) Government needs to work for the people (not the other way around) who go to work every day, if they still have a job. Other holidays that have been effected similarly include Martin Luther King Day and Columbus Day (there was a time I got these off as holidays).
