@twipped @Karstan @straphanger I don't think the WDW transportation system is funded by taxes. While the roads are maintained by the special taxing district*, the buses, boats, monorails and sky gondolas are operated by WDW itself.

WDW runs them at a loss because doing so helps the resort monopolize tourists' time. Most mass transit systems don't have that advantage, because taxpayers hate subsidizing things they don't use.

(* and WDW is the largest taxpayer in the district.)
