While I agree that the revenue stream needs to be significantly bolstered, I don't believe that simply throwing money at the problem will solve the issues.
This is clearly true, but the problems cannot be fixed without more money.
Would you call your legislators to tell them what you think?
Just as soon as the state is out of a budget crisis severe enough to require gutting programs that keep people alive and off the streets...
Similarly, I won't complain to my legislators in reaction to one rough commute, and I won't ask that the T, which serves a relatively limited area, be funded at the same level as the roads which ensure that food can come to our cities.
