BakerCare(less)....

 Our Governor Charlie Baker (GOP/IBM) has done wonders for manufacturing in Massachusetts. He has a whole assembly line to fabricate excuses when supplies run low, people have to wait forever in line or when the state's website auto destructs. He is really good that way. I'm fifty eight and I've noticed that a lot of my college classmates down in Connecticut are getting vaccinated, meanwhile up here, my sixty six year old brother has spent the last two weeks trying to secure a vaccination appointment from North Adams to the Atlantic...zilch, nada.

Call it whatever you like, but come next year when Charlie runs for his third term, just don't call it managerial genius. In fact this is what we get when we have a Governor who thinks the private sector can fix a rainy day and that cancer can be cured with a tax cut. What you also get is a cheap fragile vaccination website composed literally of check marks on a list, and nothing else!

And thats all we are gonna get until the Governor starts making better use of public resources to battle a public health crisis. Just don't hold your breath on that one, we are simply gonna limp along while Connecticut, New Hampshire and West Virginia laugh at our staggered stumbling pace, sooner or later we'll get to herd immunity and when we do, we'll likely fall right over it.
