It's not the government's job to provide a 300 ton train to carry people door to door for every journey someone could possibly make.

If the government is to provide public transit, then supply should be suitable for the demand such that it is cheap and reasonably frequent. Buses. Why the fixation on heavy rail? Answer; because you don't actually care about transportation, you care about trains.
