    Why are tax dollar being spent making it a little faster for rich FiDi people to get to JFK. Take the A train like the rest of us.

    There is so much infrastructure NYC could improve:

    • Biking Infrastructure
    • More subway routes in Brooklyn
    • Better ties to PATH and LIRR
    • Expanded and more reliable bus infrastructure
