Yes, because "PIMCO-owned office landlord" decides the corporate HR policy at Amazon.

Reply to comment by xSlappy- in MTA Could Nix Fare Hikes with Just $350M More Per Year, Lieber Says by psychothumbs

Fares are not taxes. They are cost of use.

Life is regressive. Bringing up each instance of it makes folks sound clueless.

Fares are regressive. Food is regressive. Housing is regressive. Sex is regressive. Happiness is regressive.

There is no need for the government to independently intervene in all areas of our lives. I'd prefer that all/most of intervention towards equity goes through a single economic policy - taxation and wealth distribution.

Specifically on fares - the MTA fares are already plenty progressive. Poorer folks commuting from deep in Bronx pay the same fare as richer folks commuting two stops in Manhattan.
