I am saving $120 dollars a year in tax saving well worth it.How many rides a year does the mta looses(in dollars) for the cost of running the current metrocard sales operations. Station agents MVM cost staff to refill and repair the machines etc 90 cents a month per rider is not that much. With a larger pool of people in the program, the cost per person per month would be lower. The 90 cents also covers the costs to interact with my payrole provider What is the commission the mta pays to the metrocard resellers plus the cost to package and distribute the cards It is far higher than 90 cent a months per rider. Contact less cards run by an outside vendor could cut these cost big time. Fewer MVM refills, the end of the station agent to sell fares (replaced by station security) |
