Boston Mass is making MBTA 3 bus routes free in a 2 year pilot program.
"Mayor Michelle Wu has long called for the city to “Free the T.” She announced Wednesday that three of the city’s most popular bus routes: the 23, 28 and 29, will be free in a two-year pilot program, bringing her a step closer to that goal.
“We know that public transit is a public good, and it should be funded that way,” Wu said Wednesday on Blue Hill Avenue in Dorchester. “Transportation is about connectedness at the end of the day, connecting us to health care, to education, to jobs and to each other.”
The three bus routes, which traverse areas of Dorchester, Mattapan and Roxbury, each travel along Blue Hill Avenue, an important corridor connecting riders who are underserved by the existing transit network, the city said in an announcement of the initiative. Wu noted in her remarks that this pilot is part of broader city, state and federal plans “for Blue Hill Ave. to be a transformational economic corridor in the City of Boston.”
we should play buzzword bingo with news reports...

Good luck with that. Just like Minneapolis’ light rail or Milwaukee’s 3 mile choo choo to nowhere, you will have homeless getting on the free ride, riding along all day in a warm vehicle, probably doing drugstore and pissing on the floor so they don’t have to get off.
These democrats are turning us into a third world country.
EDIT: yet these city leaders still criticize largely white commuters for abandoning public transportation because they are filthy and unsafe, calling them racist and privileged.

Free?

Free = Make the middle class pay for everything.

We can only hope that someday people will realize that nothing is free when provided by government.
Of course we have our education system to blame for not teaching this basic concept.
The Biden Regime is so desperate for anything to make them look good they are grasping at straws with endless promises of "free" programs hoping desperately to steer away from collapsing poll numbers.
