Whoever pays for it gets to call the shots, because they're the ones who decide whether the system lives or dies. Passengers who don't pay--just as much as governments that cut funding--are saying they want the system to die.

I sentence you to a lifetime of riding buses in Brooklyn for this Vey Wrong Opinion

POP = "well fuck it guess we're never gonna make money on this"
-
Farebeating rates are about even, in some cases less, than line-up-singe-file-like-kindergartners procedures
-
Those Japanese providers don't fuck around with POP and as far as I know they're not plagued by fare-dodgers either
-
Japan doesn't need to fuck around with PoP because they have trains where in the west we have buses
-
They don't use POP on buses either dude, just the same fare media they use on the trains
-
My point is that Japan's buses are not extremely high ridership, so slow fare payment is not as much of an issue

Tapping a suica isn't exactly slow payment
