What's wrong with "pure profit driven private ownership of transportation links"?
There are some things the government can simply do better than private industry. Like eminent domain. And there are down sides to competition. What if a giant corporation that owns the freeways in Southern California also operates the port of Los Angeles. Might the access roads to the port of San Diego begin to crumble before anything else? Or maybe a few key ramps will be eliminated to "save money." I'm in favor of government ownership for these types of reasons.
