@Lance -- the point of reverse commute programs is not to give people more money for transportation, but help address a mismatch between where jobs are, where jobless people live, and transit between those places. So the point would be that Cabi allows people to get places that transit doesn't go conviently or doesn't go at the right time. Giving them more metro fare money wouldn't help transit availability.

I don't know the area well enough to know how this will work, but idea is not just to subsidize transportation, but to create new opportunities.
