can you believe the mta's doing this to us
? a fare hike with subpar service quality? it's like they're trying to nickel and dime us to death
. i get that costs have to be covered, but what's the point of having better on-time performance if the trains are still infested with rats and construction is a problem everywhere? 
.
i feel for people who can't afford the new fare, but it's not just them โ it's everyone who relies on public transportation as their primary way to get around. we need better infrastructure and more frequent service, not just some fancy new fare system
. omny might be a step in the right direction, but it's going to take more than just tech fixes to make our transit system reliable again
.
and what about those of us who are trying to make ends meet? i've been on the subway for 50 years and i can tell you that the service has never been better... or worse
. it's time for the mta to prioritize people over profits and figure out a way to make public transportation affordable for everyone
