That trains can't do that every bit as well as cars (Much better, quite frankly) is a myth. You can look at both North American history and massive spread-out continental countries overseas for plentiful evidence otherwise. The car monoinfrastructure is simply an intentional policy choice. Reversing it involves confronting that fact.
What you said supports the argument of the person you're trying to refute. There aren't enough train lines.
I'm not sure about that, I think the real issue here is that there just aren't enough train lines
Heh you're right. I come across the far-apartness meme and I see red, and need to inform on the myth above all else.
Buddy. We're on the same page.
East Asia and Europe proves its doable.
The automobile lobby has been blocking all development here for ages.
