And yet the NYC/NYS/MTA political establishment can't grasp why the NYC middle-class is abandoning the subway system as much as is possible. Work From Home has liberated a lot of the NYC (and suburban) middle-class from daily contact with the subways.



And that same political establishment can't understand why more New Yorkers are buying cars now. 52.3% of outer borough households own a car - http://u.pc.cd/p6k

Might seem simple but how would the barrier open up if there are 2 completely different types of rolling stock operating the B division, with completely different door spacing.

Worse yet, they're trying to force through congestion pricing, presumably to get even more people on the dirty, unreliable, unsafe subways (?)
