objective is how rich are you as a country
even in china where some routes doesn't make sense to take plane...dominated by HSR, still can lose money, still need bailout
even in taiwan..this is literally the most successful one i saw, north to south with insane frequency everyday...almost every trip is full, still lose money
so the real question to ask is are you rich enough to keep bailout or not, if the answer is yes...thn build it
Why the lossomey. Why high cost of running. Electric only to elevate the train set. The rest is f the cost coming from where? Are they counting the initial cost to build the line?even in china where some routes doesn't make sense to take plane...dominated by HSR, still can lose money, still need bailout

We should not be harping on the losses itself. Fix the root cause of high cost to run the train.
