The French National Railroad System Is In Trouble!

The French National Railroad System Is In Trouble!

Historically, this Public Transportation System was subsidized by the state.

The profit motive was not the primary aim, but punctuality, efficiency, and affordable service was intended,

Now the government wants it to be competitive.

And that means allowing the Public to invest in this enterprise for a profit, because to do otherwise would not attract private investment.

If it is not accruing enough revenue to remain a viable service to the public, then some partial Private Investment may be needed to keep it alive.
