TriMet has always been run by people who would destroy any private
business they would be given. They seem to have no idea how the retail
world works, and while I adamantly oppose privatizing TriMet, I would
like them to become a lot less stupid as guardians of this public
resource.
Over the years — and I've been riding TriMet since 1981 — TriMet has
responded to increased costs and insufficient ridership levels in two
ways: raise fares and decrease service. Can you imagine a store
tackling the same problems in the same way? Who is going to go to a
store that increases its prices while offering fewer choices?
And if that were the only offense TriMet commits against the public it is meant to serve. Alas, it gets worse.
