   Once in a great while I run into a bus driver who won't let me pay .
   The only regret I have is that it usually is when the bus fare is low
   like when I'm on a transfer.  Sure it makes me feel uncomfortable and
   "different" but I don't argue.  Bus fare is too high anyway.  All
   joking aside this "based on income " idea is fine but tough to
   impliment unless its like a senior citizens pass where they ride for
   free.  That would be nice. If they want payment give me a descent
   job then it won't be necessary..
