Campaign For Liberty — Trainiacs

Campaign For Liberty — Trainiacs: "The proposed fare for a one-way ticket was $32; but that is only what the rider would pay. The non-riding taxpayer would pick up the other $68 of the $100 actual cost per trip. High speed rail is the literal incarnation of the metaphorical free ride - the fraud upon which modern liberalism is based. The more obvious fraud of this HSR project is the 'high speed' part; our train was going to trundle along at only 57 mph."

Greyhound only charges $8-$25 for the same trip!
