EDITORIAL: Give public a voice at NJ Transit: "Subsequent hearings, however, have peeled back some of the layers on agency problems, including an unreported $22.5 million operating deficit last year and a tendency to fill high-paid executive posts with Gov. Chris Christie cronies while leaving hundreds of safety-related jobs vacant.
Meanwhile, the Christie administration has slashed direct state subsidies to the agency, from $348 million in 2009 all the way down to $33 million last year. That means safety compromises, among other things, while also driving up commuter fares."
