Cool so you have an opinion on a specific issue that isn't based in the facts of the specific topic. You also won't do any research because it might challenge your opinion that, by your own admission, isn't rooted in specific facts.

You are basically just humble bragging about putting effort into remaining ignorant and don't even seem to realize it.

They probably just don’t want hikers to be able to damage tracks and derail a train full of tourists 6k ft to their deaths. I don’t disagree that it’s not an environmentally friendly mode of transport. In that same breath only hiking should be allowed on mt Washington then. The auto road sucks and should only exist for Travis Pastrana to race.

If, and that's a big if, the government is actually running a business that turns a profit, I'd be beyond surprised. Governments do not know how to run a business, which is why they always run at a deficit. If the so-called government business puts forth that it's making a profit, an audit will reveal that its a sucking black hole, pretending to make money.

Businesses, for your information, have to run on general accounting principles, that means cash or accrual methods. It also means double entry accounting. Just because a business takes in large sums of money does nor mean that it's financially healthy, nor stable.

The government tends to forget to include the expenses involved in their schemes, instead showing that something is very profitable when in point of fact it stinks on ice.
