The Euro Crisis caused by wars since 2002. Interesting theory.
How much money had Greece , Portugal and Ireland spent on such matters.

We are basically looking at whether the user should pay the majority of the cost of everyone including Shetlanders etc who are no where near a railway line.

Of course great to get to London for couple of euros but you would pay more tax.

I am not saying we have got in exactly right but not I think have the other Europeans who more heavily subsidise the railways.
