Buy or Don’t Buy: MTA Imposition
I can’t seem to get my head around this one. So I’m asking for a little help. There are pros and cons and an opt in system. So what’s the stitch?
The MTA wants to be more green. That’s a buy. But the MTA is broke. Yeah, we’re already paying for it. So that’s a don’t buy. So to be more green you got spend some green. So how does the MTA plan on fixing this problem? Asking people who care about going green to pay more. As MTA CEO and executive director Elliot Sander put it..
If people want to be supportive of reducing carbon, this is an opportunity for them to do that.
I use the MTA all the time. Even when I’m sleeping. It’s 24 hours, which beats other city’s transportation systems (ahem, DC you stink). And there are usually some cuties on there which has nothing to do with this particular issue.
For those of you who know me… I hate to impose. So is this an imposition? They are asking nicely, but on the other hand we sort of already paying for it. So you tell me. Would you do it? Or more appropriately, will you do it? Is it an imposition? Eco-friendly or eco-retarded? I need answer. I need someone to tell me what to think!!

I’m liking these “give us more if you want” business models. Radiohead made millions by doing it with “In Rainbows” and it seems to speak to the American psyche in some way. I think it’s a “buy” for the MTA because you’re already there buying a ticket anyway, why not spend a little more if you care? Vote with your money: so very democratic.
