Who are the real wealth creators? The bankers, the corporate lawyers, the marketeers and the CEO's? Or the teachers, nurses, garbage collectors, plumbers, cleaners, care workers, etc.?

La professeure @MorencyCat vise juste🎯: « dès qu’on se met à réduire le service, ça coûte plus cher pour tout le monde. […] Les études le démontrent bien, chaque $ investi dans le TC coûte moins cher à la société qu’un $ investi dans le réseau routier. »
