First, a new highway lane has far more capacity than most light rail lines, and is far cheaper to build. I don’t think anyone, even light rail supporters, dispute this. Light rail is generally supported over highways for what I would call aesthetic reasons — light rail just strikes some people as more elegant a transportation solution.

I could have a little fun with your winger friend's BS because of the many holes within it. The frigging idiot think he's a transportation expert when he's not. However, its not worth the time and energy. However, I will point out that there is absolutely no way in hell you can build a freeway more cheaply than light rail in this day and age. ABSOLUTELY NO FRIGGING WAY! Its indisputable!
