Odd how the solution to EVERY problem is always less money and freedom for normal (non-liberal) people. You’d think just on random chance the solution would be MORE freedom half the time.

Also, interesting to note how his “solution” involves more work for him and his cronies.

Nothing like a transit union leader to really tell the truth about the need for more "public" transit. Thanks Oldeconomybuyer.

No, it isn’t, idiot. Your union told you to say that.

Noo Yawk can KEEP public transportation. Here is Sweet Home Alabama, I will be traveling using my pickup truck and my own two feet.

Anyone else notice the surge in gas prices? Almost like a conspiracy or something.

They are a national security issue. Much easier to harm a large number of people on a bus than in 60 different cars.

It sure is amazing that the policies commies want all seem to coincide with what the warmers want. I’m sure it’s just coincidence...

Yes, Public Transit, that long love affair of communists.

I hate the European Genocide going on at the moment, but the one positive note is going to be watching their long touted Public Transit system fall into ruin due to the same reason it doesn’t work in America.

Third Worlders, they’re why we can’t have nice things.

... and to strike a blow against inequality...

That is straight out of Marx's Communist Manifesto, or Mao's Little Red Book.

No conflict of interest there! In other words, this is what he really means “it won’t change global warming, but our union guys always do the job at about a 300% cost overrun when it’s a govt mass transit project, so we’ll have tons of cash, some of which we’ll give to the Dems as bribes that they can use to promote global warming.”

The Public Transit plantation ghetto packs you high densers inside like cows.

When you wish to quit acting like a cow, change.

Lets start by EVERY public employee (from top to bottom) being REQUIRED to take ONLY Public Transit.

See how well that flies with the big government ‘rank and file’ to see how well that works.

Standard leftist practice of adding zeros to ‘their evidence’/facts to help support their agenda.

Leftist Lie as Easily as THEY Breath.
