No it isn't its very fair, why am I who rides the subway only get a 5 cent discount per day while a person who lives in west bumble**** get 2 free rides a day? It's not unfair... look at commuter rail riders, they have to pay to not only ride the train but in most cases pay to park at their station. When you live in a certain area you CHOOSE to move which most people did i.e. Co-Op City or Starett City or Throgs Neck, or Country Club, or Riverdale, or Whitestone etc that you its a two fare area before these metrocards and right now they're getting away with too big a discount, it's time to close the gap. I'm not even suggesting that they pay full price again, $120 a month for an unlimited metrocard... which is still a $60 a month in savings.Trust me I'm 100% for zoning but those same people who you say would be screwed now if we implemented the two zone fare... will be paying upwards of $10-12 a day in travel instead of $9. |
