Subject: CBB Tolls!

It's time to stop the monopoly! The MTA is going too far again! Now they even admit that they're going to CUT SERVICES AND RAISE FARES AND CHARGE FOR BRIDGES! What have WE, the commuters gotten from them in let's say, the past 20 years or more? Nothing but service reductions and fare increases. What have they, the MTA, been doing with all the money they've been getting from this? Renaming bridges? Making life miserable? Buying recorded announcements so that the conductors don't have to do anything for their pay? Installing metro Card vending machines so that the little idiots in the glass boxes don't have to do anything for their pay? They've closed stations. They've closed entrances and exits to stations on the subways. The bridges are a mess, no matter what you call them. And now we people are going to have to PAY to get in and out of Manhattan? Looks like the TA has us right where it can hurt the most (and I don't mean ONLY in the wallet!). Time to stop it! Time to find an alternative to alternative transportation in this city!
