False characterizations. When the government gets in the way of the private sector accomplishing something, that’s a great evil. Speculating on the likelihood of the private sector taking the initiative when the government got in the way from the very start is just that—speculation.
The private sector did indeed build the rail system, especially from its beginnings, which is where their capital came from to begin with. It is when the government started regulating and taxing them punitively that they started to lose money. Same applies with the road system. This goes back a lot further than you imagine. It’s held the country back in many ways, and to a great degree it is the cause of the disaster we now face.
Sorry no. Again show me a private sector that had any intention of building the interstate highway system. There isn’t one. And that proves you’re full of crap.
The private sector built the rail system with government money and chasing more government money. There were big prizes for who finished first. Without the government money they wouldn’t have done it that fast or that comprehensively.
We’re in a circle. You’re so desperate to insist anyone that disagrees with you is a liberal you’re saying ridiculous things and saying them over and over. And I’ve refuted them all at least twice. We’re done. Bye.
