If it can't survive on it's own it's useless and not needed. Just like Amtrak
Living out in the boonies, transportation to the big cities can be a lifestyle problem. Living in an isolated town of 50,000 has many benefits, but having to drive 150-200 miles to the big city is certainly a problem. The Feds cut our air subsidies out long ago, but that was certainly needed by many here and definitely not useless. My wife almost died on 1/1/17 driving back from Vegas after dropping off our daughter for her trip back to Portland. Highway head on with a texter. She's just home a week. C'est la vie!
trump is taking a dump on the people who voted for him. I would say I'm surprised but I'm not. He only cares about the top 1 percent. Anyone who thinks otherwise is fooling themselves.

And that is really very sad, because the people that voted for him trusted him to help them. They believed him when he said he would help them in their quest for a decent job and standard of living. They believed him when he said that he was going to make healthcare cheaper and still cover everyone.
He never mentioned that he was going to stuff his cabinet with Goldman Sachs guys and other billionaires, while cutting job training programs in Appalachia, rural subsidies, public schools, meals on wheels, etc.

Boo ****ing hoo. Move then if it's such a problem for you. Tax payers shouldn't have to subsidize your laziness or life choices.
