The reading and the lecture both discuss the Amtrak transportaion system in the US and how the government should deal with this fasilitiy. The article states that Amtrak should be run by private companies and provides three reasons of support. On theothre hand, the professor avers that it is not true and Amtrak not only should be under government control but also it should be supporrted much more than it has been. First, the reading material posits that Government lose money on maintaining of Amtrak's route. Since, Amtrak's routes expand to remout area which do not have many passenger it cost a lot of mony for the govenment. However, the professor believe that government should fund this system as all US citizens have the equal right to access to a good transportation system. She mentions that the principal goal of Amtrak is providing transportaion system for people who live in remote area as well as city dewllers. Second, the author proposes that government funding of Amtrak is an unfair practice against private transportation companies like airlines. It adds that airlines could not compete with the ticket of Amtrak which benefit governmental financial help and lose in their business. Conversely, the lecturer opposes this idea by saying that it is a silly reason, why? Because the government pay a lot of money helping those airlines. Constructing the control towers and control office of airports also weather satelaites that thsoe airlines benefits alot, are only just a few of governmental help. She avers that sirlines could not exist without governmental help at all. Third, the article points out that governmemnt should spend this fund elsewhere since Amtrak only transport less than one percent of passengers in the US. In contrast, the speaker insists that amtrak should be funded more to attract more people. If poeple in US do not use Amtrak system like Europiean or Japanees, it is because of the absolute traine with low speed. She comments that government should upgrade the Amtrak system with high speed trains and decrease the ticket cost to absorb more people. Then in this case people will leave their private cars in their house and will use Amtrak transportation system.
