Comment on Here’s why some people still evade public transport fares – even when they’re 50 cents
Zagorath@aussie.zone 6 days agoIt took me a second to realise what you meant, but it’s a very good point if I understand you correctly. Income from fares only offsets the cost of discounted travel if the wage of the people doing the enforcement (and any other overhead) is less than the amount brought in by that enforcement. Is that it?

I mean, if some person doesn’t pay a fine in time, there is an additional cost to do a debt collection.
Some people has multiple fines to pay, so gains are probably lost forever.
