Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book scrutinizes the government's decision to relinquish control of the railroad industry to private companies in 1919. The author argues that this action created a monopoly that suppressed innovation, efficiency, and fair competition. The book contends that the government has a responsibility to regulate industries like railroads that provide essential services to protect the interests of the general public. The author proposes a range of solutions, including strict regulation of rates, government oversight of security issuance, and even government ownership of the railroads. This book will appeal to readers interested in the history of American business and those concerned about the role of government in regulating industry.
