[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Good. Why should taxpayers subsidize people's commutes? I've been working for 30 years and no employer ever gave me money to get to work. That was just part of the cost of having a job. [/quote] Hey, dumb dumb..because it is in everyone's best interest. It reduces the cost of metro commute which means there are ~700K fewer people on the roads.. which means you have a better commute when you drive to work. Dont just jump research and then talk. [/quote] What prevents you from paying for your own metro commute? I have to buy my own gas. No one buys it for me. Why should someone else pay for your farecrard?[/quote] People using the metro helps keep gas prices lower. If people use metro less and drive more, that will create more of a demand on gas. The price of gas will then go up in reaction.[/quote] So by that logic, people driving more would result in fewer people using the metro, and then metro would be cheaper.[/quote] There's a big fixed cost component, so probably less than you would think. Bottom line is [u]all[/u] these f'n subsidies need to go away. They're causing a ton of unintended consequences and damaging our economy.[/quote] Is your Econ degree from Trump U?[/quote]
