I guess you're NOT POOR...otherwise you would understand....but you obviously don't....someone who is poor doesn't have a BWM to cruise around or anything close to owning a car....so their soul form of transportation is mass transit to get from A To B. While you make a claim that $2.25 a ride is nutin....for you...probably not...moneybags....but for poor-folks on a fixed income ....it is....


"Try telling a city person who rarely rides MN and LIRR that monthly passes are $200-$400 and they think I'm lying."


Poor excuse.....since when do you see poorfolks riding the LIRR out to the Hamptons and back? tell me when...and we can sit down and discuss me selling you the Brooklyn Bridge at a steal...

Yea....the monthly tickets are alot....but that is by choice if you want to work in the city. plus some people the Transit-chek ticket scheme so they can purchase before taxes. Also....some employers do pay for commuting costs as a cost to run a business...
