Somebody needs to explain to me why they think they need a fare increase when there is OVER ONE BILLION DOLLARS IN THIER BUDGET that has nothing to do with operations.

As we who follow the agency know that the transit division that supplies transit to citizens is barely functional these days and very unreliable. This isn't unique to TriMet is basically all of the larger transit agencies.
