They are not the ones to blame. They are just taking orders from Budget. They are the onew who need re-educating. I was just talking to a friend yesterday who is pissed why LIRR tickets now expire in 2 weeks instead of 6 months. They did it to screw hundreds or thousands of people who don't read the fine print out of tickets they already paid for. One person on TV was out $455.00. I think they made a one time exception for him because of the bad publicity.

What my friend wanted to know was how the MTA made money on this. Sure they made thousnds in the short term, but screwed themselves in the long term. My friend told me he always used to have a dozen for more tickets he would buy and not use for months, thereby giving the MTA an interest free loan on the money. Now he only buys tickets as he needs them.

It's this type of shortsighted planning that crews the MTA.
