What an excellent idea! All buses and trains, unlimited ridership, about $53USD. Of course you can never see something like that in the USA because that would be SOCIALISM! Or something like that. Also a huge PITA to administer.

This would be a heck of a bargain if you're going to vacation in Germany for a couple of weeks, even more so if you live there. ;-)

As the article says, it's valid for "almost all forms of public transport apart from long-distance intercity trains. Cross-country travel will still be possible using regional trains, significantly reducing costs for some people who used to pay hundreds of euros a month for their regular commutes."

And we can't have it up here in Canada, because we're stuck right next door to the transit shitshow as you describe it on your side of the border. Dammit.
