Re: SEPTA Strike

Well, they gotta pay for their viagra somehow.

A fare increase of that size could mean the cost of a token would go from the current $1.45 to about $1.60, and a weekly Transpass from the current $20.75 to about $22.75.

But nothing’s certain.

“If there is a fare increase, we don’t know how much it will be,” said SEPTA chief press officer Jerri Williams today. She said it would depend on inflation, ridership, the overall economy, and SEPTA’s effort at “fare simplification.”

Williams was quick to say the new contract agreed to today for bus drivers, subway and trolley operators, and mechanics was not to blame for a fare hike.

No not at all.

Because you know, what you pay your employees is completely and utterly disconnected from what you charge your customers… (or bilk from the state)
