<p>Last Chance</p><p>Americans should adopt the transport solutions that best meet their needs. They may take the best of breed practices from other countries, but at the end of the day the solutions need to be crafted to meet American needs.</p><p>What is missing in the discussions about the virtues of Europe's rail systems is an in-depth discussion of the taxes paid by Europeans. If the level of taxation extant in Europe, which is used amongst other things to build and operate HST, was laid on Americans, I would wager that we would have a huge political, if not physical, revolution on our hands.</p><p>More than 200 years ago our forefathers decided that they were not real keen on European solutions. So they stage a revolution. And it led to the United States of America. Not the United States of Europe!</p>
