Since every hard-working taxpaying citizen of NYC depends on the MTA to get to work, what does Mayor Bloomberg have to say about how the MTA keeps jerking us around ? While the mayor goes around slashing the budget of the office of the Public Advocate, and goes trolling around the office of the Manhattan District Attorney, it is the MTA that keeps “surprising” New Yorkers with its “unknown” yet “constant” budget shortfalls. It is the MTA, which has the biggest potential of ruining the family and household budgets of the average worker, this during the worst financial recession in my lifetime. Mr. Mayor, you ran for a controversial 3rd t3rm, now do something for the benefit of all New Yorkers. Raid the 2 sets of books that the MTA keeps.
The main problem is that the state has cut money to the city and the MTA. The problem could easily be resolved by making rich bastards like Bloomberg pay a little closer to their fair share in taxes.
