Bus Passes
I was very disappointed to learn that the major reason the MTA is discontinuing its monthly bus passes is due to the number of counterfeit ones that have been circulating.
Woe to the society that succumbs to its small criminal element over the vast majority of hard-working people who rely on public transportation to get them to their jobs! Rather than making public transportation easier and more accessible to the people in this age of traffic and air pollution, we are taking a giant step backward as we let the lawbreakers have the last word.
How about having more police investigating counterfeit activity and incorporating stiffer sentences for those convicted?
