    The Koch brothers are waging a sophisticated fight against public transit initiatives across the U.S. And they are winning.https://nyti.ms/2JUbmW8

        The koch brothers have already bought Congress. Most of the Republicans are owned by them. Let’s clean house in November voting in progressive grassroot candidate that can’t be influenced by their donors. Follow the money

        Koch Brothels are not the first. Public transport systems were given to auto companies by Congress and they were dismantled so people would have to buy cars. Ford, Chevrolet are guilty here.

        It's difficult enough to do large, good, public works without facing sabotage from billionaires...

        This is disgusting. We need more public transportation and better transportation. All great cities have it. This does not mean that the agencies should have a pass on operating efficiently but they are clearly needed

        Of course, more public transit means less gas and oil being purchased. God knows how those poor brothers are struggling to live on their billions. Pity. If they have to destroy the environment so they can die the riches, well so be it.

        One of them is dying- the other may be too old or senile to care. so who IS running this enterprise? And ruining the country?

        Public transit is a key factor of poverty reduction in many countries. It goes to show the dangers the elites pose to our country.

        I wondered why they would be doing this? What if they gained control of all oil/gas companies so that they had control over rationing out supplies. By doing that, they gained control of populations.The glitch in that plan is mass public transit! Get rid of public transit? CONTROL

        Ok. I know you need to fund the news. BUT these hacked off bots serve the very people who are buying their desires. BTW. I’m a subscriber. (Though I am often confused as to why I’m paying, and am still denied access to articles). Still. What happened to you?
