Why should people who don't ride the subway subsidize those who do? I know this already happens, but not the same extent you propose and it can reasonably be argued that the current subsidy is rationally related to the fact that non-users of the subway benefit from its existence due to increased economic activity and decreased traffic.But in any case, mass transit is not a public good and should not be free. |
