    So what about the billions of dollars the MTA gets from the Federal Government. What exactly does the MTA do with all that money?

      They use it to make those flyers that say what subway lines are not working nights and weekends

    Former NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg can cough up some of his billion$ for the MTA.

    Where is all the fare and toll money going. One bridge in NY for one day generates almost a million dollars . Working man is the victim.

    If people are going to go to the casino, they go into gamble. Who cares what we do with the money.

      I hate that the highway taxes, passed to fund the Interstate system, can be used for mass transit. The pandemic showed that mass transit is a threat to all urban dwellers since it spreads deadly diseases easily.

      Good. The MTA is also responsible for its streets and all we have to do is keep taking lanes from you

    I don't think building casino is the answer. No one wants to travel to casinos these days with so many online gambling options. But we can build slot machines inside subway stations and subway cars, and the winning pays in the form of subway rides, a win win for all.
