Transport Nationalisation

Would it be possible to have policy that allows you to choose control over transport nationalisation. You could then choose to have No nationalisation or just certain amounts run by the government.

It’s difficult to do nationalisations right now because they would imply a large capital outlay at the start of a policy to buy back the companies, which the system is not set-up to do. But in gameplay terms this might be even harder. There is very little agreement accross politics as to the relative efficiencies of private/state run transport. We could make socialists and capitalists happy and unhappy, but would it be more or less effective at reducing congestion and car use? That’s a tough one to call.

you could choose the purpose of transportation
