Correct. Young people move to cities for jobs. But they want jobs near where they can have fun, and get there easily. That's why business were leaving. They need young talent because boomers and Gen x are retiring. Hartford just isn't conducive to any of it, and now covid has thrown in a curveball; changing habits and ways of working. We need to study what cities are still thriving and come up with a plan. But then there is the challenge of financing it.

The name came from commercial piolots flying into Providence and Boston. It was the only dark strip in the area.

The surplus is due to using federal covid dollars where CT tax dollars are normally spent along with massive sales tax revenue received from covid unemployment checks, stimulus checks, and massive inflation. Open your eyes.
