I'm sure 90% of the fare evaders can't afford the fare as it is. You go after them you're only sticking them in an already over taxed judicial system where nothing will get back to MTA. They need to stop giving contracts to the lowest bidder and give it to the ones that guarantee the work is done on time at fair prices. They need to be more on top of who they are using, what their contractors are using, and the time that these contractors are actually putting into the project and not just what they're billing MTA for.
