Yeah, saw that ... only saying it also has to be fair to those who need the service because of the economics that put a good many people far away from the subway. Those who can afford the ride should obviously pay their "fair fare." But the situation with those who have to take two buses to get to a train (not all THAT many) need some compensation that's reasonable if they went this way. Lower income people are already disadvantaged by all of the regressive taxes they have to pay in the city, this will be a major hit for many of them.It's not like *I* live there and have to deal with it. I never lived more than 15 blocks from a train ... but others live a WHOLE lot farther and aren't in the physical shape I was when I lived there. Just needs to be considered. |
