    I agree with you. The only issue I have is that some “important” things have much less extra money to dedicate to raising wages than less important things. The amount of profit isn’t always in line with the importance of a thing I guess. But if it’s that important then I guess government subsidies would be able to fix that gap

      government subsidies

      I don’t think it’s a subsidy if the government was paying bills in the first place. It’s just raising wages in the public sector, which is by the way the prime driver of raising wages in the private sector as well.

      You mean because it’s public transit and might need more subsidy to raise wages and thus probably becomes political?
