Premier mass transportation

Can we say that the MTA is ripping off New Yorkers by slashing services, reducing maintenance and not purchasing new equipment? New Yorkers since they are paying their share deserve the reversal of the service cuts that were implemented in 2010. However do not hold your breath - Joseph Lhota is mum on that end. It is obvious that serving or providing service for New Yorkers is not his top priority.

Is reducing the bureaucracy or removing it a part of Joseph Lhota priority? We wonder - we believe by harming the blue collar members of the TWU Local 100 then that is harming New Yorkers and by benefiting the blue collar that is benefiting the people of New York. It clearly appears that Jsoeph Lhota wants a fight with the blue collar employees who are members of the TWU Local 100.

We are not going to get it wrong with the contract of 2012. We must come to a conclusion - it must be clear, decisive and fair. Those are the absolute keys - the sooner that the process is settled the better.

Since Joseph Lhota took over the helm of the MTA things are not getting better for New Yorkers in their reliance of the premier mass transportation system. Will he take responsibility for that? What action has he taken besides being problematic towards the blue collar who are members of TWU Local 100.

It appears Joseph Lhota policies are getting far worse - what are his responsibilities towards New Yorkers one wonders? Why has he allowed it to happen? Joseph Lhota, is blaming the blue collar workers or the members of TWU Local 100 for the financial mess that the MTA is in. No wonder New Yorkers will suffer with these service cuts. Joseph Lhota is wrong on the facts of the financial mess that the MTA is in. It was not created by the blue collar and in addition New Yorkers should not be penalized for the poor management at the MTA.

New Yorkers rely on their premier mass transportation and it should be that. Nothing less is acceptable however poor management and bureaucracy have depleted the resources without a specific objective or accomplishing any strategy of enhancing this state agency which is not acceptable. We do not expect an answer or explanation from Joseph Lhota rather beneficial changes for the blue collar.

We know he does not want to talk about the service cuts. Maybe he is embarrassed by his record of what New Yorkers deserve but he owes it to them to tell them the facts as they are as well as what is happening to their premier mass transportation system.
