In that case, we should perhaps try to kill two birds with one stone, and provide for the needs of large cities and commuter transportation while giving the economy a good boost.

Instead of using 100% of the surplus to pay down the debt, we should consider the possibility of using some of the surplus to improve the quality of our infrastructures.
