    Because convincing US politicians to properly fund public transit is like pulling teeth, and until the funding model is changed, US public transit agencies literally cannot afford to eliminate fares. Providing free fares for kids is really smart because those kids will grow up knowing how awesome public transit can be and will help be a driver for change in the long term.
