Description
Americans have long enjoyed the benefits of what is without a doubt the world's safest, most efficient, effective, and extensive transportation network ever constructed. Everyday these transit systems move millions of people to work and home again. It is a system that helps keep shipping costs low, while enabling Americans to live where and how they want. Unfortunately, it is also a system at risk. Over the past few decades, focus on the system has been lost and now money is being spread over numerous programs, which causes a dilution of federal funds taxpayers invest each year. This book presents and discusses the reasons why a better plan must be introduced in order to better transmit services and create a stronger economy.
