if you cut the the fares it will do more bad then good and make it worse for ever where

@cupcakeknl100 I have no control over fares & service cuts. The removal of Train Attendants was announced in March of 2011. A written essay objecting to the elimination of TA's was published by me in July of 2011. The movie, which is based off the written essay, was released in November of 2011.

The T didn't announce it's fare increases/service cuts until January of 2012. My movie objecting to those cuts, "Un-Fare: How the T Became Broke", is on my channel. Please watch that one & enjoy.

Don't forget they are giving a 4% salary increase, and making 19 new inspectors @ a couple dollars an hour more than train attendants make.....sounds like a huge savings

Thank you my friend. I'll pass along your comments to Sarah (the narrator).
