Its understood that those regulations wouldn’t have saved the train in Palestine. That’s one problem with the discourse on the left. I don’t favor regulation for the sake of regulation - nor cutting it for its own sake. There obviously needs to be a rational best-effort cost-benefit analysis. Not cheap politics.

- pessimizer 4y ago> There obviously needs to be a rational best-effort cost-benefit analysis. You don't seriously think there haven't been many? The problem is that train companies, governments, and people who care about the environment classify and price costs and benefits differently, and government was paid to adopt train company calculus. It's not that nobody ever thought of figuring out the costs or the benefits of this major, well-known proposed change.
