Yeah, the solution is pretty clearly to shift the risk/expense to some other party. There seems to be zero political will to have the government do any of that

Yeah, the solution is pretty clearly to shift the risk/expense to some other party. There seems to be zero political will to have the government do any of that (or anything, really), so it is really up to the private sector.
- moomin 9y agoProblem is, it's not clear it's possible to shift the benefits to the private sector as well. The government just gets to ride free on the societal benefits. This is why all the decent railways in the world seem to be publically owned. (Yes, there are badly run publically owned railways. What I'm saying is that it seems to be impossible to successfully run a railway privately.)
