It's rarely that. It's usually a superficially constructive claim - America can't do it because it's not dense, America can't do it because it's too populous, America can't do it because its cities are too dense or too sparse or too far apart or too old or too new, America can't do it because Americans prefer what they have.
They'll usually have some irrelevant statistics. Presumably total population, total surface area, some other such superficial analysis.
I never engage in these discussions. This is the first time, and probably the last. But I've seen them time and time again.
It probably should be left to individual states to work out to a large extent. That said, I really do think that common carrier rules should have been applied and stuck to very early on.
