I still don't understand why we aren't subsidising something like that, over single fares imo. Mind maybe not as extreme though, maybe the £80 mark instead which is equivilant of someone making 3 returns every week maybe, give or take?

The difference, of course, being that Germany regards public transport as something that helps people get around in an efficient manner, whereas the UK regards it as something you can use to make profit out of those who have no alternative .....
