[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, maybe if the service they provided was better in the first place, I would use it more. I go into work 3 days per week, but always drive at least one of them. There are metro delays, it is crowded, and it is dirty.[/quote] How can it be crowded? OP assures us nobody is taking it! But yes, what you're pointing to is the "death spiral." Funding shortfall, service cuts, less ridership, funding shortfall, service cuts, less ridership... I answered a ridership survey a month or two ago (Maryland MTA, not WMATA), which asked how I would get to work if there were no transit. If there were no transit, I would be unable to get to work. It's as simple as that.[/quote]
