I went on the LA subway as a tourist, my first time in the USA. It was terrifying. It was also way too cheap, id happily pay 3x the price for it to be less terrifying
In USA, isn’t tax considered an affront to freedom?
The LA public transport is in a death spiral because the taxpayers dont see a need for it because they all have cars. So funding gets directed elsewhere. But they want to people to not have the excuse “oh, it’s too expensive” for not using it, so they make the fare super cheap.
Therefore, it’s caught between hardly any funding and also hardly any income

Too cheap? Public transit should be free.
Offer to pay more taxes instead or defund stuff like the military.
