Transit options are nice and this one sure is pretty cool but not so cool when it is at a ridiculous cost.

NYC regional transport needs to be consolidated into one agency with a more transparent review process with less politics and more oversight.

If we want to continue to have nice things, we need to do so within reason and figure out how to pay for the stuff we already have.

These ridiculously expensive cost overruns are an outright embarrassment and need to stop. What will it take to get people in charge that can rein in costs?

Completely agree with everything you said, but I will say that in a decade no one will care about these cost overruns.

End of day we should absolutely do what you said, but getting overly expensive infrastructure built is better than saving money and not building anything. Its sad that we're in the a state were its either or.....
