It only takes one person reeking of urine to make a whole train car a vile place to spend any time. So yes.

- alehander42 8y agoif there are so many people with problems that this happens often, your city has much more important problems to solve(helping those people) than "nice transit" (my city & most cities have to do this as well tho .. i am probably hypocritical in this)
- closeparen 8y agoWe are not going to solve the problem of democratic governance by a majority-homeowner electorate. To the extent that a homeowner electorate would ever allow homelessness to be solved: - Can't solve homelessness without mass affordability. - Can't have mass affordability without density. - Can't have density when voters are worried about congestion and parking impacts of development. - Can't stop worrying about congestion and parking impacts of development when you drive everywhere. - Won't stop driving everywhere until transit is attractive. Homelesness and repulsive transit are a feedback loop. We have to break it somewhere. Fare enforcement is a lever we actually have.
