Funny article about the city council, and their lack of relavance

I saw the Boston Magazine list of 100 most important Bostonians 

and saw that none
 of the city council members were on it.
Sad state of affairs when people spend 100's of thousand of dollars 

to get elected to
an office that has no power.   It shows how important 

getting real estate deals done
 and legal problems solved
for the developers and lawyers of the city.

Gayle Fee and Laura Raposa more important than all the city 

councilors?
 Unfortuneately, probably true.
