Whats worse, over 200 miles of subway lines built when the lines were privatized. Just a few dozen miles since the govt seized them.

"private" lines in NYC were always heavily subsidized by the government paying like 2/3rds of construction cost

They never subsidized operation. They did force them to keep prices artificially low until they went bankrupt. And then immediately raised the fare after the city takepver.

Most if the elvated lines and the Brighton line and Roackaway line had no construction subsidy btw.

Idgi and I guess you ran out of schizo meds. No one actually lives in or works in nyc any more, let alone worries about “subway” prices. Cities are a dated concept from a forgotten era.

Hes saying since we have shitty dilapidated unreliable govt subway lines that look like this after a $100 million "renovation" then we might as well do full bolshevism

I can’t even remember the last time I knew what any subway cost. 15 years or more.
