Son of a Bitch...this is just retarded. Like, so stupid, I'm not even sure what to say:
FARES = increased to $2 dollars and .50 fucking cents per ride!
SERVICE = slashed
SEATS = still totally and completely impossible to find
ALL THOSE NICE OCCASIONALLY HELPFUL PEEPS WHO STAND BEHIND GLASS = probs fired

"FARES = increased to $2 dollars and .50 fucking cents per ride!"
So... two dollars and half a cent? That doesn't seem like such a huge increase.
Why don't we organize some sort of anti-MTA movement where we all jump the turnstyles and stop paying for subway rides???
Sorry Jim, but a $.50 increase is more than 20%. How big was your raise last year? 3 maybe 5%?
WTF MTA!!!!
Having fares go up more than 30% in one year is completely absurd. Where's all the money going? And the State Senate that blocked the package from the Governor for bridge tolls clearly have their priorities mixed. Instead of raising the tolls for the few they are raising fares for the masses. Seriously, how many more people use MTA transportation in the city than drive over a few bridges? Anybody?
This sucks.
I like D's idea. Mass civil disobedience.
".50 fucking cents" is $0.0050, or 1/200th of a fucking dollar.
I think Jim is pointing out that Erica meant to write "50 fucking cents," which is $0.50, or 1/2 of a fucking dollar.

can I still horn in on bitches in my subway car and stare at them?
I'm glad that I am leaving NYC before they implement the fare hike. I bet they will not lower the fares if things ever get straightened out. Fuck the mta!
What we need to do is start blocking those damn bridges. Make those fat, lazy fucktards in queens ride the subway for once instead of driving to their free city employee parking spot every day.
You cry babies have never traveled??
Oh No, $2.50 Oh No! Go Fuck yourselves,
try going the distance from Coney Island to The Bronx Zoo for less then $8 any where in Europe?
FUCK YOU PARK SLOPE PUSSIES- Please, go back to Kansas, N.C., Florida or where ever the fuck you babies came from.
Native Brooklynites for Brooklyn!!
