And they're right. People who regularly travel before 9:30 probably are
still in work, so there would be a loss of revenue. But those who mainly
travel after 9:30 are much more likely to be retired, on discretionary
trips, so there's very little loss of revenue.

Why is this so hard for you to grasp?


Because I know employed people who delay their journey until 9:30 to get
a free ride [tm].

Why do you find it so hard to grasp that removing the 9:30 threshold
would open the flood gates?
