As we should. Shipping and cargo are major necessities in our economy. Agree that more train could be used than what we use now, but there's a lot of railroad overhaul that needs to be done.
It should be the individual motorist who drives a couple ton machine around with just themselves in it that pays the most for the roads. The most damage for the least public utility.
