Your claim about cost is rediculous. Just look at Seattle, where we have both a 14 mile light rail system and 14 mile monorail system starting to get off the ground. The mostly-at-grade (slow) light rail project costs $2.4 billion. The much faster monorail system (with 12 more stations) costs only $1.6 billion.
That's a real-world savings of $800 million.
