[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Something new, like pre-1933 American society, amirite?? Why don't you do a little digging to compare what American society was like before there was a social safety net? And how is providing incentives for employers to give their employees more help in terms of transit subsidies in terms of letting them write them off their tax bill any worse than just giving them the tax cut without doing anything for their employees? Do you HONESTLY believe that employees are suddenly going to be more generous than they are? [/quote] No, you're dead wrong. I don't want tax payers to provide any incentives. That's how prices rise. The transit operators see an artificial subsidy and they raise prices of fares artificially. If all subsidies would go away, then the market and pricing would return to normal. We have so many subsidies, idiotic taxes and price supports, that there's nothing natural about this economy anymore. That stupid shit gives us things like Obamacare health plans costing 15 grand a year with 8 grand in deductibles and college costs of 50 grand a year. It's stupid leftists policy that's creating artificial dislocations in the economy and making things worse, not better. [b]Stop doing stupid shit in the first place and we won't have most of the problems through unintended consequences that we have today.[/b] [/quote]
