Thinking about it - is there a single corporate giveaway bigger than land cities give to carmakers for free? The auto industry has no business model without free pavement. How large is that subsidy - inclusive of land value of “public” streets? Land in SF is $600/square foot.
1/ What's the point of Twitter speak? It's neither meaningful nor elegant. And finding who gets the benefit of a subsidy works in the same way as determining tax incidence, but in reverse. It's split btw consumer and producer, with a ratio that has to be determined empirically.

2/ It's possible that you have the research to back the assertion that all the benefit of road subsidies are captured by carmakers. But if so, why not just cite it instead of trying to sound edgy online?
