Excerpt from Arbitrary Price-Making Through the Forms of Law: A Few Points Bearing Upon the Proper Limits of Governmental Supervision or Interference in Railroad Transportation
There are certain business laws - natural laws which legislation can no more repeal than it can set aside the tides. They are so broad, deep, and self operative that their unceasing action is but lightly appreciated. Like the laws of steam or electricity, our accomplishment is vastly increased when we work with instead of against them. These immutable principles are also compensatory and include self-regulative and corrective forces which are mostly unrecognized.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book takes an in-depth look at the topic of arbitrary price-making and its potential consequences. The author examines how setting prices through external means, rather than leaving them to the free market, can have far-reaching implications for the economy and society as a whole. The author argues that arbitrary price-making undermines the natural self-regulating forces of the market, leading to imbalances and inefficiencies. They explore the historical evolution of this practice, highlighting its negative effects on industries like railroads and utilities. The book also delves into the ethical and moral dilemmas posed by government interference in pricing, questioning its ability to genuinely promote equity and fairness. Through a comprehensive analysis of relevant cases and examples, the author demonstrates the dangers of disregarding natural economic laws and the importance of individual freedom in determining market prices. The book concludes by emphasizing the need for a return to free-market principles to ensure a healthy and prosperous economy.
