[quote user="henry6"] So, Sam1, are you saying you see my point and may even agree with me that it is a question that we must agree on in order to find agreement of how to tackle the future of transportation in our country? [/quote] A little bit! The United States has a transport framework.  Otherwise, how did we get to where we are now, which for all of its flaws is a transport system that works pretty well.  And one that appears to reflect the wishes of the people. Having said that, the system can and should be tweaked from time to time as circumstances dictate.   If one believes that Washington or Austin bureaucrats know more about planting cotton on the high plains of Texas than the cotton farmers, then they are inclined to favor highly centralized, top down centralized planning. On the other hand, if like me they believe that the high plains cotton farmers know more about planting the cotton, then the role of the central planners should be to develop a framework to help bring about better cotton yields. But they should not attempt to micromanage the outcomes because every time they do so they mess it up.
