    There is no market because passenger rail is inefficient.

    Because rail has no market, there’s no incentive to make passenger rail more efficient.

    The circle of American transport since the 60s.

      I hate when people argue against mass/public transit by stating the current issue with it. My father in law does this anytime our conversation get to public transit. He tells me about the one time he thought about taking the bus in his extremely small town and the trip would have taken twice as long. It is painful that people think pointing out the problem advocates are trying to solve is somehow and argument against fixing the problem.
