Is that benefit worth the hundreds of millions of dollars we spent on the system? What if we'd changed to $0.85 bus and $0.85 subway fares?

Was there any reason we COULDN'T have done that -- making subway fare cheaper to match the bus fare? If we CAN do $1.70 bus+subway rides WITH the added overhead of the new system, why couldn't we do $0.85 each WITHOUT it?
