Corruption, Politics, Cash, and the MBTA

My faithful Stonecutters readership (hi Mom!) is all too familiar with my experiences with the wonderful MBTA (Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority).
From my "See Something Say Something" experience to murderous trains making me late for work.

Well, my favorite organization is back once again to torment me. You all may or may not be familiar with the recent Big Dig tunnel collapse in Boston a couple of weeks back. Well, the collapse happened in the Ted Williams tunnel which is essentially the key pipeline between Boston and the North Shore of Massachusetts, where I happen to live of course. The result of the collapse is that the tunnel is now closed indefinitely. Therefore, traffic issues in Boston are at an all time high, even worse than they were before the Big Dig tunnels opened! I love irony.

So now, North Shore commuters unable to drive into Boston are piling onto the MBTA trains that I take to work every day.
So, how has the good ol' MBTA responded to this sudden influx of riders paying piles of additional cold hard cash into their coffers each day? Increase the number of trains during rush hour maybe? Or perhaps add a couple of additional cars to the trains servicing the North Shore? Or simply placing a maintanence priority on the North Shore line to ensure that trains do not break down?
WRONG!!! The answer is simple; Pack the additional cash paying suckers on the regularly scheduled, frequently un-airconditioned, often broken down trains, and stuff the extra income gained into their FAT GLUTTONOUS PIG WHORE FACES!! ARRRRRRRRGHGHGHGHGHGHHGHG!!!!!!! (Much stuff being broken).

Meeting of the MBTA braintrust.










This is just yet another example of fat-cat Massachusetts politicians and political organizations lining their pockets while the people suffer. So the question is? How do we punish these transgressors? How can we serve a nice plate of cold justice to those who have allowed others to suffer and even die in order to squeeze a few more bundles of cash into their pockets?
How can we ensure that these greedy slobs finally realize that we mean business and are not going to take it anymore?






Your guess is as good as mine.
