Agree 100%.  In the past once in awhile I might take the Bus paying the one way fare and then use the paper transfer if I don't have my car but now with a transfer a Bus ride will cost a $5, I might as well just use only Uber as the cost difference between Uber and the Bus for shorter distances will not be that much.  The fare change is defintely acceptable to Oahu tourist who use the bus because for them over the course of one day they will use the Bus mulitple times throughout the day.  The local users, both pass holders and occasional Bus riders will be hit the hardest with these fare increases.  Everyone can thank Mufi, Carlise, Caldwell and now the State putting all Hawaii taxpayers on the hook over financing the endless money pit Oahu train to nowhere and the incredible negative financial consequences and reduced government services it will have for all of Hawaii and the middle class.
