So I knew the #charlotte public transit system was having a hard time, but I hadn't realized it was as near the breaking point as so many other societal systems are now: https://qcnerve.com/opinion-things-are-coming-to-a-head-at-cats/
Biggest reveal there is that our transit operations have apparently been run by an underperforming private contractor for years??? and very few city leaders knew about it?? https://www.wbtv.com/2022/07/14/private-company-runs-cats-bus-operations-charlotte-leaders-didnt-know-that-until-this-story/ The city could be making bank off this company if they charged the fees we're owed for shitty service.

A private company runs CATS bus operations. Charlotte leaders didn’t know that until this story.
WBTV began investigating the bus system after months of problems plagued CATS operations: two shootings, dozens of daily driver absences, buses that don’t show up on schedule and other trips that are never made at all.David Hodges (WBTV)
