had to resurrect a horrendous meme template from the bowels of the internet for this very specific idea that popped into my head yesterday
context for the 95% of you who have no clue:
in Scotland, people under 22, over 60 and with disabilities get free buses, where the government pays bus operators a percentage of the single fare for each journey. so companies like McGill’s hike the single fare to get more money out of this scheme
@Ninji They do it with the subsidised bus fares in England as well. You pay a maximum of £2 and the government pays the rest, so if your destination is more than £2 awa, the driver will sell you a ticket to the end of the line.
