Normally, I worry about things be free, but beyond transit turning into mobile homeless shelters (see the "Hotel 22"), I'm not all that worried about regional transit being free. There isn't much marginal cost, it takes cars off roads, you can save by not having to do ticket sales and fare enforcement, and traveling is enough of a hassle, I don't see it inducing that much demand for transit for shorter distances.
