Business is off ridership is down and Covid makes riding in confined spaces dangerous anyway. They do have to cut costs. Playing political economic games with the people is ultimately an economy buster and the people will look at who is in charge!

After almost a year of Covid ideocy and still more and greater ideocy projected it’s extremely hard for me to believe that the economy isn’t going to crater.

plus nearly 10,000 workers laid off DO IT ALREADY!
It seems to me that DiBlasi has been talking about layoffs for six months at least, but none has occurred SFAIAA. Has any transit worker been laid off? Has any NYC government "worker" been laid off? Any government "worker" anywhere?

Why the f*** do the rest of us, who chose not to live in NYC, have to bailout that cesspool’s sh*tty mass transit system?
They can go to hell.

The layoffs alone - 9,367 workers, mostly NYC Transit subway and bus workers - would save the MTA $1.2 billion a year.
Wow.. 26 posts and no one notices that these bus drivers are making $130M a year equivalent? No wonder MTA wants a bailout!
They should be talking to the city, not trying to get a bailout from the US taxpayer! Hell, even the State shouldn't be bothering to give them free $$$!

Maybe they should go back to this guy's salary....
