Mass Transit (That is the buses that took us to and from church were *free*, which is to say that the church contracted with the local bus company (Jerusalem Avenue Lines in those days) to provide this service.Yes, of course the church PAID for the service on an annual rather than on a per capita basis, but EVERYTHING *MUST* be paid for one way or another. If the Subways were *FREE* (you would only be paying for them with your taxes) then mis-creants and stoopit kids and Gyrovagues would make these places their homes... Smelly feet and all! MUST have some fare control: $2.50 is cheap enough. (it makes the same dent in you allowance as 25¢ made back in its day.) The LION *DOES* propose FREE BUSES (or street cars) on certain routes on the assumption that you will have to transfer to the subway or to another bus to complete your journey anyway. ROAR |
