Anyone trying to suggest that gov't should be in charge of things like railroads and not capitalists is just letting Wuf shoot fish in a barrel. I think it's pretty clear capitalism wins that battle.
Capitalism thrives where there is competition. I think I have wuf on my side in this regard.

Capitalism wins the battle where the incentive exists. Currently it doesn't, because if I want to go to Cornwall, it's gonna cost me a shit ton. Where's their incentive to provide an efficient service?
