If BART's broke, it's management's fault

>This is true with ANY company, TriMet included:

It's real simple.
Employees generate money for a company and management spends that money for said company.
If the money is all gone, never look at the employees for answers...they didn't spend it. Management did.
Add in the fact that BART is a company that depends on money from the government, you'll also see BART's financial planning is similar to the military. Neither will attempt to save money.
For example, you get 1 million dollars from the government and decide to save 500,000, the next fiscal year you'll get 500,000 dollars instead of 1 million dollars. Of course if you get 1 million dollars from the government and spend all of it plus another 1 million dollars; you can request the government give you 2 million dollars next fiscal year instead of 1 million dollars.
If BART's broke, blame those that spent all that money. It's management's fault.
