Firing the general manager of VTA, or abolishing VTA and transferring its responsibilities to the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors are ineffective remedies. Management failure is due to a fatally-flawed structure. New management on the flawed foundation will not improve anything. Pigs won’t fly even if you give them wings – bad design.
Why did Canada privatize? Why did Mexico privatize? Public-sector transit, bus and rail are unsustainable!
