I guess that this is circumstantial. That is USA's political system that is not working.

Because the headline is about a local government taking responsible actions to improve peoples lives while empowering public transportation as an efficient way of transport.

How different is "Metropolitan Transportation Authority" to "Consorcio Regional de Transportes de Madrid" [0]?

Oh I'm not making excuses for it. The commenter I responded to noted that NYC's political dysfunction makes things difficult. I'm just noting that New York State's political dysfunction is also to blame.
