MOOSE plans to make it up by moving millions of people to the exurbs and having them all "voluntarily" pay sufficient taxes to MOOSE to generate a profit. Totally sensible./s

Property powered rail does work. In dense cities, where rail operators can collect premium rents from property adjacent to a station. See Hong Kong, Japan, etc. Even they aren't arrogant or ignorant enough to suggest this would work as a rural settlement scheme.
