Fare hike went through. Not as bad as originally planned, but all fares except the single ride are going up. And planned service improvements (other than some improvements to the L and the 7) are delayed until March.

It makes sense that people who use the subway more should pay more. But that's about the only thing that makes sense about the whole thing in general.

More for less = what a country.
