We had a month of free transit here and everyone said the results were very positive (its already mostly paid for by taxes anyway), so... idk, I'm guessing neolib Labor will ignore it and carry on. We have free transit on Sundays now

Free transit is such a win-win for everyone except the car industry. It's an amazing lesson in capital's control, really.
