    According to a CBS article that was put on the web at the end of last year, federal subsidies to transportation are: approximately $30 billion for highways; approximately $15 billion to the airline industry; and approximately $1 billion to rail. So, it is possible to conclude that if rail received the same amount as the airlines, the cost of rail for a consumer would decrease.
