The MTA has taken advantage of the fact that millions of new yorkers rely on their services to get to, and from work or school. The new fare hike is the last straw, low income households in New York City are suffering enough with the cost of rent and other utilities only to have to shove out even more money they don't have to a service that is not a convenience, but a necessity. The MTA raised the fare 8 times in the past 10 years yet service only seems to get worse, cancellations, lateness, route changes, there is no excuse for this. We must do something about this.
