I don't know about Amtrak in particular, but it is my understanding that
essentially every passenger railroad in the world runs at a loss and the
difference is made up by taxpayers' money. An exception may be Japan
Rail, but some claim this is mostly due to creative accounting.

It's seen as a worthy goal to encourage riding trains rather than flying
or driving. I can understand if this is not a palatable message in the
US political climate.
