No they shouldn't. Half the time I can't even get on the bus because it's already full of suburbanites who are riding it at the same cost that I pay, no less. If that isn't obvious subsidizing, I don't what is. And, at the cost of a physical seat.
A progressive bus fare system is long overdue, but I believe it's already being implemented in some routes?
Nevertheless, a REALLY easy way for the City to generate additional income is to charge people higher bus fare the further out they live. It makes sense on every level.
