Innovation is a good thing, right? New ideas, fresh blood, thinking outside the box, all things that move the world forward. Then why do we shun new concepts of transportation? For decades, light rail has been the been a ruse used by liberal types to appease the masses. Fix a bus stop here, install an elevator there, and the votes roll in, but why are most of our commuter rails owned & operated by the government? They suck up huge chunks of tax dollars and show zero ROI, most losing money, tanking credit ratings along the way. Maybe it’s time to let capitalism have a crack at moving people from ‘A’ to ‘B’.
