Doesnt really work that way. distributing the cost doesnt make it infinitesimal, particularly if the government inefficiencies you pointed out are accounted for (the overall cost increases).

It is just not as simple as you keep in implying. We cant have a rational or productive conversation if all you do is hold on to the dogma.

I appreciate your goal, but sadly with so many views on the political spectrum, the mentality of absolutes and dogma wont get us anywhere productive. I'm not even opposed to your idea of publicly funded public transport. I just wish to have an educated and indepth discussion about its merits. Something I am not getting here it seems...
