He already did that the first time. If he didn't get elected a second time there might be benefit of the doubt but now everyone knows the US's word isn't worth shit.

Nah it's more likely just that younger kids have, even those in highschool have a smaller world. They don't have medical issues often and they only think about their peers.

How much far evasion do you think there actually is?

20 years ago the system had to support half the people it does today and it doesn't look a hell of a lot different (Eglinton any decade now). Making everyone get on at the front of the street car is a massive waste of time for all involved.

These types of things are a balancing act always. No enforcement means people will stop paying, a lot of enforcement costs a lot and bogs the system down.

A temporary patch while we wait for hardware is the way to go.

Nothing is more permanent than a temporary fix.

They already fixed it in software we don't need to prioritize the hardware fix.
