Shocking Exposé: NYC Ferry Used by Middle Class Whites

The New York Daily News unmasks an alarming problem with the NYC Ferry service: it is utilized by hated middle class whites:

The city’s nonprofit Economic Development Corporation, which runs the ferry network with private cruise company Hornblower, conducted a survey of more than 5,400 riders over a two-week period in May and June. The agency’s analysts determined that 64% of the boat users are white, and that riders’ median annual income falls in the $75,000 to $99,000 range.

That hardly constitutes the upper crust in New York, where salaries are inflated and the cost of living is even more inflated. But subway riders make less, and more importantly are two-thirds nonwhite.

Therefore, the subterranean hellscapes that are the NYC subways (see here, here, and here) are good, and the NYC Ferry service is bad. Never mind that the same data suggests that ferry riders carry a greater share of the tax burden per capita.

Whether the city should spend a lot of money subsidizing NYC Ferry is debatable; to suggest that it should not on the grounds that too many riders are Caucasian is appalling.

The Daily Snooze may have helped launch a campaign to abolish the ferry. Progressives cannot impose utopia without ridding the country of the white middle class; preventing this despised group from getting to work is a step in that direction.
