Gov. Patrick Wants $40M In Unused Snow Funds to Go to MBTA
Should the money go to the MBTA as Governor Deval Patrick proposes, or do you have other ideas for it?

Governor Deval Patrick wants to give that money to the MBTA, as mentioned in this Boston CBS article.

The fix he is referring to is the MBTA's estimated $161 million projected budget deficit for fiscal year 2013, but we at Patch are wondering if you see other things that need fixing. Where do you think the money saved this year should go, and why? Leave a comment and let us know.
