A few facts:
Amtrak is a public enterprise, but its leaders don’t treat it as a public service
Amtrak has historically lacked the funding to substantially increase capacity (e.g., with more & longer trains)
Amtrak providing affordable tickets on the NEC would mean less profit for the agency

Amtrak over the last few years has expanded its use of dynamic pricing, a system that rewards early planners and charges a premium for flexibility and last-minute travel. Critics of Amtrak’s approach say a taxpayer-supported service should not behave like a moody algorithm.
Travel Math: When Flying Costs as Much as the Train, Who Wins?
Amtrak says dynamic pricing has helped strengthen its finances, but travelers often grumble at the cost, especially for last-minute travel. Still, the train has a secret weapon: avoiding the airport.

The USA is currently making exactly the same arguments towards Greenland, as Putin used with Ukraine.
It’s not an accident either, because they keep doing it.

If we really want to cut down on traffic congestion, then extend the SAS past 125 and deep into NJ. This would easily serve 150k-200k daily riders and eliminate 100k+ car trips.

I should also mention that this space will be operated in partnership with community based organizations. This will provide these orgs with a critical space for additional programing and amenities that serve the community while providing customer service and good vibes to the facility.

Lethal force should only be used when the lives of the public or individual officers are in immediate and clear danger. There is no way you can watch the video of what ICE just did and tell me that either of those two conditions were present.
