What kind of so called economic madness is this? I am sure Trans Pennine are doing this because it strengthens their bottom line but it will harm and damage the bottom line of many other people.
Profiteering by passing on (externalising) the real costs of an action to others might be 'clever' in the narrowly defined way that an animal achieves a cunning kill is clever but it is an action that, from a human point of view, is both socially stupid and inept in anything but the shortest short-term context. And, in the long run, it is an act of economic suicide for all.
