If the customers of Amtrak actually valued it, they would be willing to pay the fare. That they are not willing to pay the fare, but are willing to pay much more than the fare for other things of no obvious value tells us something. It tells us what they think of our money.

A republican should come out and say that this could be fixed for 1/3 the cost without the union. Then ask if he still supports it.

That will end debate very quickly.
