While I fully agree and my hate for American auto industries for crippling public transport knows no bounds, there will be no more great infrastructure projects anymore.

Corporate greed and management incompetence has made projects like this untenable even for our own government.

There simply is too much money still to be made in oil and auto sales for anyone with the money and power to implement the alternative.
