That would be fine and good, but last year, Metro added a surcharge of $1.00 PER TRIP onto paper farecards.
I reached a point where I thought there was no way I could hate Metro any more than I did. The first time I learned of this surcharge, I found out I could actually hate them more. Words cannot describe my anger over it, so I won't try. I just wish there were some way to blow up that system without killing anyone.
