Amtrak should pay own way in Missouri
Thursday, February 5, 2004
It's that time of year. It's the time when Amtrak asks Missouri taxpayers to subsidize their daily train service between St. Louis and Kansas City. Amtrak wants just over $6 million to help offset costs on the two daily trains with eight stops in between. I've long thought this is a waste and inappropriate expenditure of our tax dollars.
