The train issue is a union issue.   Taxi drivers (union jobs) make lots and lots of money from running folks to downtown.   A train eliminates those jobs.   It's why there hasn't been a train all this time.   Even running from LGA to JFK was controlled by union for union workers.   I guess Biden (a professed union guy) and di Blasio really aren't "union" guys afterall!
