I am reading the article Catherine linked to, and actually it explains things quite well.

My own example - back before they did away with the thirty five cent transfer, but after they did away with the paper version of it, you could only get it on your smart trip card. Keep in mind that first you could only add value to it inside metro stations. That's an extra hardship right there. TIME. And then, you gotta keep that thing loaded in order just to get the .35 transfer. And as the article points out, poor people do not always have more than three dollars cash on hand.

So yes, this article explains things nicely.
