Yet government almost always grows and its shoddy “services” never get any better even as its workers live better and retire earlier. The government can’t run trains any better than it runs schools or prisons or anything else.

Cut the hell out of state, county and city budgets so that you can’t modernize or upgrade rapid transit. And then bitch because it’s “grimy.”

You want good government services, you just don’t want to pay for them.
