Funny. I live in Central NJ. My GF lives in midtown (read: nice area). I don't see people pissing and shitting in my neighborhood. I don't see weed stores 2 or 3 per block in my neighborhood.

NYC is running on reputation fumes. It used to be cool, exciting, etc. Now it's like going to a suburban mall, but with piss and shit and weed everywhere.

They don't live there. Their biases are based on what they watch on TV.

NJ Transit buses only, not other carriers that run express buses.

Not NJ Transit, this is regional rail, with conductors who come through the cars and tickets required. Don't confuse with the NY subways.

Requires me to either be *in* jersey or go *to* jersey. NOT a slickdeal.

I'd pay extra to go around jersey and Staten Island.

Unfortunately, this is going to be a complete shit show. The NJT trains are generally crowded as it is. If you want to take advantage of this plan to travel as off peak as possible.

according to the article, all modes are included, but if you want to be certain I'd contact NJ Transit for verification
