Should public transportation be free?
#1
Should public transportation be free?
If cars are one of the major problems of pollution/ climate change (as well as traffic jams) and we are serious about curbing that problem with a lot of money, shouldn't it be logical then to make public transportation free, especially for electric tramways and electric/ hydrogen buses so that people get more motivated to use it more?

It would be a more realistic solution than waiting until everyone gets an electric car.

Or maybe it could be free until everyone gets an electric car.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
