MTA = Monetary Tricksters Anonymous?
A month ago, a New York State Supreme Court judge issued a ruling ordering the MTA to rollback its mass transit fare hikes claiming the agency had knowingly misled the public about its financial condition. Now a second judge has ordered it to rollback its toll hikes for the same reason. Unfortunately, the agency has appealed both rulings, meaning the fares and tolls will remain higher pending outcome of the appeal.

Hey, for all of me they can keep the tolls in place. Maybe then a few marketing professionals from Long Island will leave their tarted up four-wheel-drive light trucks-cum-status symbols home and brave the unpaved mountains of Manhattan via public transportation.
Not that the MTA doesn't suck, I'm just saying.
