Reply to comment by NetQuarterLatte in Mayor Adams ordered to pay $300 for rat infestation at Brooklyn home by hiegel

what do you get out of acting like a cop? like why are you being a cop and you're not even getting paid? get a hobby.

I accidentally observed that happening. That’s money I and others will be paying though.

The MTA is going to increase the fare because of a $300 million per year budget short fall..

The solution is to quit using our taxes to pay for roads and a all the free surface parking spots then fully funding the MTA without needing to charge fairs.

So let the roads degrade just because we can’t expect people (who can very well afford it) to pay their transit fares?

Not just degrade, but strip them away for green space, bike lanes, trash bins, and public plazas (all of which cost less to maintain and would be better used by the public). We can even sell some of the land to developers to build on, not only would we get money from the sale of land but reoccurring tax revenue.
