    Really, your example for the “free market” transportation in the US is Amtrack? … in a car community?

    This is just a tanky shitpost.

      In an anti car community. Considering the US proudly proclaims itself the champion of the free market, yeah, it’s only fitting to use Amtrak as the example.

        Or you know … a car? Because then it would at least be relevant to this community.

          …the post is intended to portray the difference in trains – the logical, excellent, and much preferable alternative to cars. They’re excellent everywhere else but absolute shite in the supposed pinnacle of the free market.
