I’m not sure how it works where you live, but when I was a kid I would walk down the block, then jump on a bus that took me directly to and from school every day. I didn’t have to pay for this free service nor do I recall having to EARN it. In New York City, bus service is not available all students, so many of them have to take the subway to get to school. Why should they have they have “study harder” harder to earn a ride to school? Does that mean if you didn’t study hard enough and have poor grades you should lose your ride?
