I think that says more about the the US-based public services than it does about public services in general.

From a european perspective, public services in the US seem really terrible. Whereas in the UK and Europe, the default mode of transport in large cities is public transit, in every US city I've been to (accepting maybe NY) your only real options are Uber or your own car.

"The privatised network is highly efficient, requiring few subsidies and running extremely punctually."
