What about buses and skytrains with only 1 passenger?

Do buses and skytrains cost a gazillion dollars to build?

Where would the $ go if they didn't build this?

I asked where the $ WOULD go, not SHOULD go.

that's a shame for a government to use a huge amount of money to build something that can only serve a minority of pplricrick 發表於 2010/8/4 13:06

In the US, this is fine since the top 5% of earners contribute 75% of taxes, so it makes sense for them to receive more benefits than those who never pay taxes in their lives.

Unfortunately this is not quite true.  We have way too many leechers.

yes but they hv a higher earning on average?
its good that they are building this and building that..but does it really benefit the real general public that only earn 1k a month...you can say that these trains are not for those workers...so then what's the point to build them if only the rich can afford themnews 發表於 2010/8/4 15:38

the ticket price is not that outrageous.
many urban workers can afford it

if you say that it's not built for farmers
then yes, it's not
but what's the problem?
