Comptroller-elect John Liu Blasts MTA

The question of the day is. Where is the mayor? Isn't he the one that always says use your common sense. Stated that education comes first and he would fight for them! well here is the open door to speak, where is he... no comment wow! how is using Common sense now??????

Taking away the Student Metro Cards is an outrage.
If any other company but the MTA would mismanage there government funded budget they would be investigated by the FBI with a fine tooth comb. The MTA has raised fares stating it’s for maintaining stations and for track work but there still stations that should be condemned! Where did the money go?
The executives at the MTA make an outrageous amount of money with nothing to show for it but excuses and badly kept books, how can you miscalculate $300,000.000.00. I say lets open the book to the public and see where the money went? we have the right to know. Let’s put some of these students at the helm of the MTA I believe they would do a much better job than these MTA executives that are nothing but fat, greedy, corrupt individual that are only in it to line there pockets.
WHAT A JOKE!!!

i got to keep my metrocard so i could travel place to place and without a metrocard i wont be able to go to school and will fail.

oh please ...john liu is nothing but an empty suit.. he can always find a problem, but never offers up solutions... worthless politician

I know how the MTA can save a ton of money. If New Yorkers used common sense we would not need all the car cleaners that the TA has. If all New Yorkers used the waste paper baskets instead of the train floors for their garbage, cigarette butts, coffee cups, newspapers and fried chicken bones, we would not need the TA cleaners. If New Yorkers used bathrooms to pee in instead of the train floors or the floor of the stations, we would not need TA cleaners. Think about it. Who does all of this, our fellow New Yorkers or Transit Workers. As for trains being late, who causes that? Our fellow New Yorkers. How? How many times do you see one person run downstairs to hold the doors open so the rest of his family can walk down the stairs slowly and get on the train. What about the people who are waiting for that train at the next station. Or, when the conductor is trying to close the doors and people are fighting to hold the doors open so more people can get on the train, what about the people who are waiting for the train at the next station.

hey ed ortiz... how come you're not calling for an investigation of your governor who is witholding $39 million which is supposed to go for transportation of school students???
