Ok so Musk is the reason mass transit isn't a success?

So why didn't we get mass transit before Musk was rich?

In Austin we approved an enormous rail project and the taxpayers approved billions to build it. Years later, they have descoped it by 75% and they haven't even come close to delivering that small bit they reduced it down to.

Was that Musk too? Or is overregulation destroying our ability to innovate?

Yeah it's a weak argument. Public transportation is weak in the US because support for it is weak. It will take a dramatic shift in the Average American view of mass transit or some breathtaking price decrease in trains/tunneling/trams along with comfort of travel in said methods.
