In the past decade, Boston has reversed decades of population loss to draw middle-class and affluent residents back to the city for luxury condos, restaurants, and upscale boutiques that have sprouted like mushrooms after rain.

By the way, there’s a nexus between this issue and the gay marriage issue.

One of the less-talked-about implications of ‘legalizing’ gay relationships into marriages is to undermine the right of government to give a tax advantage to married couples who are going to have or have a family. By making the deduction available to essentially anybody, i.e., same-sex roommates, it dilutes and undermines the benefit, and sets the stage for its full elimination.

So whereas we see in, for example, Russia providing tax incentives to women to revive its dismal birth rate, in the US the gay agenda is to strip away any meager incentives to families that can and would bear and raise children — who are course essential, from an economic perspective alone, to prop up the Social security pyramid (which is now an inverted pyramid, of course).
