claim .versus. rebut
it's saturday and i decided to stay home.
did a little of the assignments and slacked through.
read news online and found this amazingly ridiculous.

are the transportation companies facing some kind of competitions (hike in fares) within the industry?
1. increase in ERP charges.
claim: to soothe traffic flow.
rebut: how to soothe traffic flow when ERP gantries are implemented almost everywhere?
2. increase in SMRT (bus and train) fares.
claim: commuters save more when they transfer more.
rebut: don't commuters spend more also?
3. ComfortDelGro taxi to impose surcharge.
claim: to help drivers cope with the high diesel costs.
rebut: and comfortdelgro will keep increasing its fare if feul costs continue on hike?
*my (basic) cab fare will cost S$12.85 (the moment driver starts the metre) if i book a cab from the city during peak hours*
REBUT: when will the increase in salaries reach us?
