Realistically, you're dealing with people like a (former) legislator from Flushing who wondered aloud why there were delays on trains because they run on rails. Sadly, I'm pretty sure she wasn't in a minority of legislators who didn't take time to learn about the field they're charged with oversight of. Lack of knowledge and will to learn and investigate is probably why lobbyists, who always come equipped with a very simple explanatory model, are able to succeed with legislators, particularly legislators whose candidacies are funded by such lobbyists.One thing i learned about working down here.. When you step to the MTA you better have yer facts straight.. Dont take em on if you dont know what you are talking about,they will grind you, up chew you up and spit you out.. |
