Every home owner in Hillsborough County pays for the HART buses.
It's not a lot per year, less than $50.
Want to bet that HART's principle customers aren't homeowners?
How about we charge every single renter $45 a year to fund my car?
Oh yeah, my car is funding the roads that these buses are driving around on, isn't it? HART gets their fuel road-tax free.
Explain to me again how this is a benefit to me and not just an unwilling subsidy to others?
I recall that buses and trains used to run at a profit in America. What stopped that? Who killed it? The demographic that's dependent on them hasn't changed.
