Public Transportation Encouragement Bill [On President's Desk]

You would be better off just subsidising tickets, though I suppose you'll create a few thousand jobs this way...

But, the main focus of this bill is to hopefully help the environment. The cities are the places where the enviornment is being hurt the most, not rural areas.

lol

Poor agricultural practices can cause a hell of a lot of environmental damage, to say nothing of the mining industry or power generation.

This bill gives a tax credit of 15% for people who purchase a travel pass. The simpler, less bureaucratic way would be to simply reduce the cost of purchasing a travel pass by 15%. Instead it stays the same, yet now we have the added costs of administering and running a small tax credit which in all will cost more to implement than just a simple flat cut would have. It's a convoluted piece of legislation.

I made the same point a few posts up but no one took notice
