(suffolk only gets 25% back from the fares. the state gives us less then they should, and the county chips in more though taxes, so if they are low then they get even less moeny, but if they raise them u get the rest of the county, ppl who maynot ride the system, mad at you) i'm sorry but its a lose-lose, no matter what. |
