Morality and complexity of bus fares

The adult single fare with Bus Éireann from Tralee to Dublin is €25.50. The adult single fare with the same bus company from Limerick to Dublin is €11.00

How can that make sense? Of course it doesn't.

It is another example of the complexity of morality.

Fare dodging is clear enough. So what's this?

Who makes the rules?

It is most probable that the executives of the bus company and those who pronounce on morality seldom if ever use buses. Interesting.
