NYC MTA is already talking of another price increase in 2026. Good luck NY
NYC MYA sneaked a price increase onto New Yorkers.
Let’s dive in some math:
Price for an unlimited monthly metro card is $132. The metro card is quickly being phased out and fully replaced with an OMNY card my the end of 2025.
OMNY card charges per ride up to 12 rides with each ride costing $2.90
So $2.90 x 12 = $34.80 per week
Google says there are 4.286 weeks in a 30 day period which is the equivalent time period of a monthly metro card.
So OMNY costs for 30 days are $34.80 x 4.286 =$149.15
@DavidCantoneX @front_ukrainian You must have not been in class when they covered WW2. The US entered the war because Russian communism would have occupied all of Europe.
@CalltoActivism If you vote yes to this then you’re a supporter of Zelenskyy and Ukraine. If you vote no then you’re in support of cutting government waste
