Design-build is an issue too. Its outsourcing government work to private sector

The stepped up basis only comes if its a bequest, not a gift. So OP needs to die first I believe

Thanks for clarifying. NYC is larger than any Texas city but Texas has a huge population overall

Your population figures are wrong

Fare increases are highly regressive taxes. Something like 1/3 LIRR commuters make under 50k a year.
I pay $243 a month for LIRR. At least its $243 of untaxed salary but still.

Shame because its delicious. Their catfish and alligator are to die for. If its 20% extra for takeout I would just eat there and at least have my meal served and not have to deal with dishes and trash. Same price but you get a waiter

No, you’re confusing the Grand Central Shuttle with the changed Brooklyn service. The changed Brooklyn service eliminates direct trains from Long Island to Brooklyn, having 99% originate at Jamaica

Some people have disabilities or have to carry luggage. Not to mention braving the elements. Have some compassion, this is a reduction in service for tens of thousands of commuters

We should have smart shops like Amsterdam that sell truffles. I’ve had a much better experience with truffles than I ever did with street mushrooms or LSD

Its shuttle service that does non-timed connections and direct trips from locations east of jamaica have been all but completely eliminated. The shuttle service is to jamaica track 12 as well, no longer are transfers cross platform, you have to go up the escalator

Not to mention it completely fucks Brooklyn commuters, lengthening commutes while eliminating one seat rides from points east of Jamaica

Yeah, its just a big subway station. The one I went to was cavernous, dark and brutalist. But Cuomo’s name was prominent and looked good!
