Just because it's functional doesn't mean it's not a dilapidated shithole. There's so many trains and routes in the subway that are one bad day away from 6 months of shutdown for maintenance, including some critical bottlenecks between the outer boroughs and Manhattan, and the MTA would rather spend hundreds of millions on security theater.

I love living in a place where public transit is a legitimate option, but much like the bridge in Baltimore I'm just waiting to see the whole thing collapse under it's own weight while the rich fucks in charge just shrug their shoulders and inform us it'll be $20 billion into their pockets and 15 years to get 40% functionality back.
