@vanshnook If a fare increase is inevitable, then we need to mitigate the negative effects. Implement #6MinuteService (use fare increase to offset cost of service increase) and reform #FairFares to simplify qualification and implementation so that the most vulnerable don't get priced out of transit.
Of course, it'd help tremendously if MTA gets its costs under control.
