I have no idea why you’d think that there aren’t some people choosing to not travel due to cost but I’ll also acknowledge I won’t change your mind
July 8, 2025 at 8:35 PM
Fair and I would say that’s definitely going to be a chunk of that increased use but I don’t think it’s guaranteed to be all of it. I’d assume there are a decent number of people choosing to not travel at all. Imo a better use of the funding would probably be to cut rates across all public transit.
July 8, 2025 at 8:24 PM
For sure could totally see it being a better use of the money that would have gone to making buses free to cut rates across all of those forms of public transit busses included
July 8, 2025 at 8:16 PM
Same thing with the increase in rider for extra bus added. I’ll be upfront I don’t have numbers for any of these I’m guessing here. imo I feel like you’d see more riders per dollar from the free fares and those riders will be from people who’s reason for not using it before was cost
July 8, 2025 at 8:11 PM
I think the number of people is the increase seen in the city’s that implemented it (article doesn’t give a number). I agree with you about the not coming to areas at all and I’d be super curious about seeing a dollar per new rider comparison between expanding lines vs making fares free
July 8, 2025 at 8:08 PM
If the fare was the only thing stopping them from riding more that’s still a situation where people were being prevented from using it due to the cost tho
July 8, 2025 at 7:47 PM
Agree that new lines to make sure all areas of the city have access is just as important as people being able to afford to use it when it comes to making sure public transit is accessible for everyone. Imo better service doesn’t seem as big of a barrier to people being able to use it as cost tho
July 8, 2025 at 7:40 PM
If it causes an increase in public transit use while leaving driving rates unchanged isn’t that proof that the primary group benefited is people who couldn’t afford the fare before? Imo public transit being available to the entire public is a higher priority than speed (both are def important tho)

Out of curiosity besides writing unit tests what have you had good results with? That’s been the only use case for it I’ve found that doesn’t require me to verify the code for bugs or out of data functions from libraries

Milei in Argentina, pretty similar situation in terms of being elected promising to do things that destroy an economy then following through and destroying their economy when elected.

Not saying he didn’t meet the majority of his promises I was trying to say that post 2019 election he stopped being a noticeable progressive force in terms of what he was actually doing/promising and more just stood for not being the party trying to undo what he had done up until then.
