David...It's a degree...of course, as somebody noted, the expansion of the system in Manhattan benefits many Brooklynites, maybe even a majority of Brooklynites who ride the subway....but it does nothing for the inconvenience many Brooklynites face in having to take a bus to the subway every time they want to go into the city and again please tell me that there aren't large areas of Brooklyn and Queens which are not served by subways...in many cases it is a historic accident where subway lines are located but one of the reasons for the amalgamatin of the city of New York at the end of the 19th century was to unite the city into one big happy city but since 1940 or thereabouts, there hasn't been one subway project to provide subway service to those areas which don't have it...tweaking here and there yes to benefit those who already have subway service but nothing to serve the large areas of Brooklyn and Queens without subway service. and the sad part is there is not the slightest inclination to do anything about it because after all they can take buses... |
