We need to tax kerosene at the EU level. Would be a good way to have an independent revenue for federal institutions

But also subsidize trains at the same time. Otherwise we just forbid poor people from traveling

Trains are already heavily subsidized but I agree, fares have to go down for people to use it more.

Cars are subsidised more than trains, so while trains are heavily subsidised they’re still at a significant disadvantage compared to both cars and planes.
