I feel like part of it is just, how our lawmakers are huge self-serving conniving assholes. Nothing else to it. They don't want to spend the money, they don't want it to be easier for us to get around (for instance, imagine a pregnant woman taking a train out of shithole-Texas to a blue state with real doctors. Control.)
