"That's the way it's always been done" is just not a good enough reason. When New York City went through its financial crisis in the 70s, they had to change the way they did things... the old way didn't work any more. MTA is in a similar position... the old way isn't going to work any more. And inconvenience is part of what the customers will have to accept... again, if they want service levels as they were, they can give the city and state permission to raise taxes. People don't want tax increases, but they don't want service cuts and fare hikes, either... can't have it both ways. The service has to be paid for by someone.
