A. An increase in income inequality
B. An increase in future taxation
C. A decrease in the use of private modes of transportation
D. A deadweight loss
参考答案: A
本题详细解析:
A Subsidising public transportation would likely decrease income inequality, as lower-income households devote a higher percentage of their income to public transportation than higher-income households. Choice B is likely, as a subsidy may require an increase in taxation in the future if the government borrows to fund the subsidy. Choice C is likely, as cheaper public transportation would reduce demand for private transport, as the two are substitutes. Choice D is likely, as subsidies cause a deadweight loss, so the price is no longer determined solely by market forces.
