One option the board will weigh Wednesday is to move up the entire timeline on charging full fares to the line. Another is to add a 50-cent fare just on beach-bound routes west of downtown; transit authority CEO Brad Miller said he believes that a nominal fare, not payable by cash, would dissuade homeless riders.
They also want it to be a non-cash payable fare. Just to make it harder for homeless people to use the bus.
Yup. The whole point is to separate/disenfranchise the poor from the rich. Not enough money charged to care, but set up in a way that those who would likely need the bus the most would struggle.

This is some bullshit, no cash on a bus?

Be a shame to distribute prepaid bus cards to the homeless.
