Now Seattle Metro is threatening a 70% cut , I find that fascinating

And if you read all the tweets, they have tightened their belt (without cutting much) and cut capital spending. Something TriMet can't even lie about.

And its a 17% cut, affecting 70% of riders.

    How is it that a 17% cut can affect 70% of riders?

    It would affect them in someway or another, more crowded bus, walk farther to a stop, less span of service etc.

    Metros info is here http://metro.kingcounty.gov/am/future/
