I think for certain types of mass transit, specifically buses, corporate control would be fine as long as there's enough regulation to ensure a reasonable minimum standard of safety. Even corporate trains might work if someone can wrest control of the actual rails themselves away from the freight companies.
I agree, though. There's room for both mass transit and individual transportation in the world.
Clearly someone here thinks the US = the entire world.
On the opposite side of the world said "reasonable standard of safety" is literally the norm.
