Wtf, this reads truly unempathetic and isn’t realistic about the challenges of homelessness and severely poor mental health
Putting words in your mouth, shall we introduce W 50¢ fare for the street so you don’t need to be confronted by the failure of our society?

riff raff meaning dickheads who treat public transport like shit and the people around them like shit, if you use public transport already you would know them as the sort of people who scratch up the window, play music on their phone speakers and leave garbage all over the seats and spill drinks
this causes less people to take public transport as they take private cars to avoid that shit
