I get it- we’re in a recession. But this new MTA budget plan is absolutely ridiculous! I wonder what actually goes on at these supposed meetings? Do these decision makers actually weigh in the pros and cons of a fair hike and then just say too bad, we’re doing it anyway? AND I refuse to accept that after a budget surplus (remember that?) not too long ago that there is no more money. What happened to the money?
The MTA needs an audit and some serious house cleaning. I also believe that as New Yorkers we all need to speak out against this horrific turn of events. We need to write our Senators, our members of Congress- and we need to get the word out that we will NOT stand for this fare hike.
Yes, I am on my soap box! Who else will join me and take a stand?

I will. I’ll blog a little about it too – maybe get the word out a bit.

I’m no longer living in New York, but I do agree that MTA needs some serious house-cleaning and retooling.
