You have done nothing but pick sentences apart to sound smart, BUT- you know NOTHING of the Land Grant issue - you know NOTHING of Congress's decree in 1945 untold I told you - you know nothing of economic principles - you don't understand what the term "de facto" means - you don't understand what the term "free market" means, or you have not made such a STUPID remark of "that's how free markets work' when the government run highways and airports assumed market share from private railroads (HINT "Free" means NO government intervention). Furthermore: - Congress did NOT subsidize the railroads in the 1940's. Their WWII movements were done as customers, wore them to the bone, and then put them out of business with the socialistic interstate highway system. - Amtrak does NOT subsidize private railroads. They pay very low track usage fees at incremental NOT market costs, which no other passenger rail carrier is allowed to do. |
