This applies even to the social security scams. If you worked all your life and have saved a little the government has a way to take it back In form of medical co-payments, transportation costs, etc. Deadbeats however get everything free - Health care, rides, meals, Let’s follow Joe Namath’s (commercials) advice and figure out how to become freeloaders.

However, in reality ECAT adds almost no value to the community. I’m surprised they don’t have to pay people to use it.

Using the number individual riders and the current year's annual budget for the system, we could likely give each a car and get out of the bus business.
