With the City's contribution to the operating expenses of the tram set at 15% of the 1.7 million total annual costs; allowing TriMet and streetcar pass holders to ride for free (the City receives nothing financially from these passes) while the rest of the general public must pay $4.00 per round trip is nothing less than socially engineered separation of class - discrimination. Either the City should let all members of the general public ride free, or none of them. Since OHSU pays the other 85% of the operating expenses, I have no objection to their employees, staff and patients riding free.
