I mean despite it's history the snark is well deserved. With so many companies and people in the bay paying taxes, where the hell does all the money go?

Interesting, tidbit you added here. But snark is needed for this situation.

snark is not productive.

What form of comment on an online forum _would be_ productive?

Cat memes. But HN doesn't support image comments.

Why do you think HN is a place to engage in a productive (necessarily means resulting in something) discussion that would improve BART? Do you think this audience is in any way qualified to discuss the monetary or tech troubles of a uniparty government run service?

Instead, we could have an interesting discussion, maybe even one involving technology, that nerds would enjoy!

You don't have to be an activist wherever you go. In fact, it's almost alway inappropriate soap boxing/virtue signaling.
