Good, federal taxpayers shouldn’t be paying for public transit in New York anyway, that should be left to the taxpayers of a particular city/county/etc. If they want it they can pay for it.
The exact same could be said about roads for cars and parking spots which are subsidized land that could go to better uses like public spaces and parks.

Why should federal taxpayers subsidize car owners?
You think roads and highways exist just for personal vehicles?
The question still applies. Why should other road vehicles be subsidized?
Do you think that subsidizing businesses is somehow better?
Why should taxpayers subsidize the likes of J.B. Hunt, Schneider, Amazon, Walmart through expensive highway maintenance and construction?
I bet you don’t realize how many things in the US are subsidized by the federal government one way or the other.

NY would do well if that were the case. You’re lucky they subsidize everyone else.
