The problem is, if you keep squeezing poor people with increased cost of transportation, it reduces the incentive to keep working for their meager wages, and they will end up on the welfare rolls. That is the shortsightedness of unfettered capitalism. I know you can eliminate welfare, and thats all fine and dandy until they kill you and steal your wallet...hmm yeah then we can put them in prison for $100/day. Brilliant!!!:clap2:
The irony in your statement deserves acknowledged :clap2: seems like you know a thing or two about shortsightedness.
If everyone is stuck because of traffic congestion, no one benefits even the hard working ones. If you can't transport goods and service your business suffers your economy and your society suffers.
The only people that this will disadvantage is the lazy citizens who bitch and complain about everything, penny wise pound foolish type.
Reality is majority of people will find alternative forms of transportation. Majority have thresholds when it will force people to look for more cost effective ways to get to work and do work once a specific price to commute is exceeded such as maybe move closer to work or convince your business in smarter ways to do business, such as performance based, limit your time to work, flexible hours, car pooling, multimodal, etc...
These lazy unmotivational people will fail, and be replaced by hard working immigrants who know how to work hard, have good work ethic and know what it is to struggle...heck we are getting bunch on the plane coming here as we speak and I guarantee you they will take your type of peoples jobs away.
Its easy to say don't toll build more highways....hello mcfly...have have looked outside in the GTA, there is not exactly room to build additional lanes and the highways suck as it is. You can't say ohh fuck it just keep the same lanes, our build more highways when you have no idea of what you are saying, you have no idea of the ultimate capacity of a highway and you offer no viable solution. All your type of people do is bitch and complain and complain some more with your shortsighted thoughts without looking at a problem as a whole, presenting all POVs and picking the one that makes long term sense for all of us and not just your lazy shortsighted peeps...round of applause, just keep talking just keep talking and before you know it you will be on unemployment cause that's all your type seem to do, without actually doing anything productive and constructive.
Back it the fuck up, give us your 5, 10, 20, and 30 years solution taking into consideration various factors such as the population increase, inevitable congestion, business and other factors that matter, otherwise your comments are just a valuable as the dump I took typing this out for you, give facts and numbers if you are going to challenge a solution that makes sense and is a smart solution.
