yes but, the fares won't cover the cost, we end up paying for it.
Sure, but roads are the same in that regard — we pay for them, too. But they are a lot less efficient and they lead to a lot more pollution, and arguably just as importantly they just get clogged up with more cars in short order and then we've essentially spent that money to hasten our own destruction and make more people sit in traffic longer.
