washingtonpost.com: Bush Warned to Be Speedy on Amtrak Funding
He must hurry! If Amtrak shuts down, it would be a catastrophe! In some way I'm not really clear about!
I don't see why Amtrak can't be subsidized by the government. Heck, cars are -- they aren't much good without roads, are they? But a lot of Amtrak routes not only aren't profitable, they aren't even worthwhile. Passenger train service should concentrate on the northeast, where it's practical. And who knows, some day it might even make money.
