Economic Reasons for free public transport

TarifaZero.org: "The creation of a system of universal free public transport in capitalism sounds like an unattainable fantasy. Such a system, at first glance, it would be economically inefficient, in that state would burden too much.

But from an economic standpoint, creating a system of free public transport is advantageous to the State. A society that relies on private automobiles as the main means of transport has high social and ecological costs. We need to take these costs into account in calculating the efficiency of any transport system."

Tarifa Zero BH runs its own free bus to promote free public transport

Tarifa Zero BH: "E a nossa busona já cumpriu a primeira parte da viagem e chegou até a praça da prefeitura de Contagem!

Muita gente subiu e desceu no trajeto, trocando experiência da luta cotidiana por um transporte transporte público, gratuito e de qualidade!

Daqui a pouco vamos fazer a volta para BH, levando quem quiser curtir a noite da cidade."
