Would the Chicago bus take you 90 miles (distance from Hilo to Kona) for $1.00? There were also more than 2 million people in Chicago subsidizing their system vs. about 190,000 people here. You're comparing apples and pineapples...

The Chicago bus CTA fare is now $2.25 with no transfers if paying cash & $5 from Ohare... Using the transit card is $2 for bus (rail is the same) and they allow tranfers for 0.25 - Eligible reduced fares are $1.10... So the Chicago fare has gone up, so this will still be a better deal here & you can go much farther with your buck (or two), if it works for your schedule & transfers are free here!

Why do we have to upgrade the computers, I am sure they are doing the job they were designed to do, and the software does exactly what it should too.

Spending money on crap that is not needed is an art form.
I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.
