Folks, You were recently told the state was left 765 million in debt from the past administration of Governor Patrick.

Today a few short weeks later its double -typical news media and political hack job. Taxpayers being taken to the cleaners.

Massachusetts politicians along with the news media have been fighting an all out war on fossil fuels - “with your money !”

The news media continues to hide the 100 million dollar Evergreen Solar fiasco.

The news media touted the 50 million dollar Charlestown wind turbine blade testing facility. After three years the state unit has never tested a wind turbine blade.

The New Bedford ocean wind turbine port has major problems. Meetings have been canceled and postponed month after month in an effort to take attention away from the financial fiasco. Another couple of hundreds of millions !

Massachusetts is now planning on building a 2 billion rail line extension called SouthCoast rail. The rail will link up with the incomplete rail line to the New Bedford ocean wind terminal.

The New Bedford ocean port is going into phase two.

The Mayor of New Bedford is planning along with state officials to spend hundreds of millions replacing a draw bridge between Fairhaven and New Bedford for access to the North part of the Harbor.

The New Bedford ocean wind turbine terminal port only has a legal clearance of 120 feet. The largest boat ever to enter the port was 80 feet wide.

Ocean wind turbine barges do not fit in the harbor.

Folks is this what you elected your officials to do ?
