here's the thing that bothers me about this. the mta unions went on strike a few years back, and the mta claimed it was broke so they forced the unions to concede many things in their contracts. (I forget if they had to take a pay cut, but they certainly did not get raises.) then when everything was settled, a couple months after the strike, they suddenly found 1.5 BILLION dollars they had "lost". now look at nyc, having the state pay to subsidize it's mass transit, allows this institution to keep raising the fare for the subways and buses for it's residents while also jacking up tolls on the bridges and tunnels it controls, along with the commuter rail services, long island railroad and metro north railroad. the hilarious part of this, imo, is the commuter rails operating at a loss anyway, why not make the fare minimal. instead of charging people nearly $20 for a one way ride into nyc, why not make that fare $5. how many commuters would stop driving and take the train like the government goons want them to? then again, who wants to bother with that when you have shooting, like that guy in garden city, long island or the people getting lit on fire because ny is soft on crime... ya, ny is a shit show...
can people not keep their mouths shut? sure, this is important. but why can briben not pardon hunter more than once? let them not realize their mistakes until it is too late. he legally remains resident until 12pm jan 20, then we can point out the mistake...
I commented that the uk was gone on a post months ago and got a bunch of flak for it. stories like this is where I get my opinion that the uk is gone. frens in uk need to fight a whole lot harder and defend people like Tommy Robinson, whether they like him or not...
new york STATE owns the mta, not nyc...
