According to Politico, the biggest public transit system in America is facing ruin.

We'll Congress step in and save it.

After the coronavirus hit New York's metropolitan transit authority got a $4 billion bailout from

Washington. They blew through it. Now they're facing a $10 billion deficit.

And they're worried that $3 billion the MTA gets from taxes won't come through because the

tax base had gone. Now all options are supposedly on the table. Massive increases in fairs,

slashing the workforce, which means war with the unions, slashing the operating budget,

slashing service. Even if Governor Cuomo takes all these actions, there's still going to be

billions in the whole. If New York mass transit fails, liberals fear it will lead to an

economic crisis in the entire northeast. So New York politicians are begging the federal government

for $32 billion to keep the transit authority going. And Democrats who run the house are happy

to spend whatever Andrew Cuomo and Chuck Gusumer asked for. But Republicans, not so much.

Why should the Republicans intervene? Northeast liberals have spent every waking moment for the last

four years, trashing Trump. And now they come in, hat in hand, begging for billions to save the

city they are destroying. The proper response is to tell them to go pound sand at a landfill.

Let them fix their problems themselves. They're going to have to save that city somehow,

especially since their policies caused these problems.
