The reading asserts that the United States government should sell Amtrak, a public train service, to private companies. the lecturer, however, finds the idea dubious and doubts the reasons proposed by the passage.
First, the author argues that the government spending a large amount of money on Amtrak routes is unpractical. Since lots of the roads they cover are in unpopulated areas, it is a waste of funding because their income even does not cover the costs. conversely, the professor brings up the idea that the main idea behind Amtrak is to provide needed transportation for every United States citizen.
furthermore, the reading passage holds the view that Amtrak tickets are cheaper and it is unfair to their competitive company.on the contrary, the professor underlines the fact that government also supports airlines as well. they provide companies with paying for their control officers, their satellite needs, and their control towers. so, the airlines could not exist without their support.
Finally, the reading asserts that the government should spend money elsewhere because the majority of the people prefer to use other means of transportation like their own car, in the contrary, the speaker dismisses this issue due to the fact that people do not use these trains because they are out of date, so if they replace those by some fast and affordable train transportations like what Japon and Europe did, people would be interested in using Amtrak services.
