I took Caltrain EVERY DAY when I worked in SF, its packed.
Gee. Then you'd think it would be able to operate without gov't subsidies, wouldn't you? Aren't subsidies just another governmental scheme of robbing Peter to pay Paul that you complain so much about?

Or is it that the only thing bothering you is who receives the loot?

Bart is also a success in terms of ridership I'd say.
Then it should be able to ay its way too, right? But it doesn't. Instead an enormously costly, very inefficient operation is again supported by robbing Peter.

And you applaud it.
