Moses actually took more money from schools and hospitals to build highways and parks. With everything else going on like LaGuardia's hatred of trolleys, the city not allowing an increase to the five cent fare, the city's desire to tear downn els, the Depression, Workd War II and the growth of the automobile and the suburbs wjich was fueled by Moses, and the growth of the oil industry, there is actually no proof that without Moses, there would have been more subways today. |
