Mo Money, Mo Money,

IF NYC WANTS TO SPEND MORE MONEY, IT COULD SUBSIDIZE THE HEALTHCARE OR WAGES OF MTA MUNICIPAL WORKERS. nyc's priorities are always skewed towards the mega-rich. 30-50k salaries are not making anybody rich, with todays consumer prices, and business cutbacks.
Holiday season is, worker gets screwed season. The red of santa's tailcoats is becoming more and more diluted into pink slips, for you, and you, and you.. while the mta squanders money on a seasonsal -lite- fare just to stick it to the union negotiations, What Money? we're broke, hahaha
This time things might get ugly teamsters style, if they try to break the union up...
Isn't it amazing that you need to earn less and less to be considered poor in this country, and the only people who make that much are primarily undocumented workers (illegal aliens) which could be the new MTA staff if nyc doesn't take transportation workers seriously. Who really needs wifi when it bleeds thoughout the city already.. wide open.

You raise an interesting point. The more the city government spends on useless projects like universal WiFi, the more the city unions will demand in terms of wages, especially since the city would be spending so much on such services. I remember when the Philadelphia city council voted itself a 15% pay hike, the city's unions all in turn asked for the same pay hike since they reasoned if the city had so much to spend on the council, then it could also be more generous to the workers.
