  • It's a stupid deal. Central Falls is one mile square. It's all poor people anyway, and this just makes it poorer. A festering boil on the side of Providence.

    And before y'all get on me about this comment, my mother was born in Central Falls.

    Credit market access? Let the bondholders take the hit. Walk away. They'll come back in time.
