>> And I don't ignore the fact that we subsidize plane and freeway travel in this country either. So, the rationale is that we've subsidized those so we must subsidize rail? No. Its when you demand that planes and freeway travel be subsidy free; then we can talk about profitable trains. That's stupid. We don't have the money. Obama is demanding more subsidies for highway transportation and we can't afford it (mostly because he wasted the stimulus money on political payoffs, but either way). We don't have the money because we spend way too much on defense and because your R friends are getting a tax holiday.
