Why Rail Monopolies Have So Much Power Over US Government
Railroad monopolies in the United States have historically held a significant amount of power over the government. This power has stemmed from the fact that railroads have played a critical role in the country's transportation infrastructure, and have often been seen as essential to the functioning of the economy. As a result, railroads have often been able to exert influence on policymakers and regulators, often leading to favorable treatment and protections for the industry. This has sometimes come at the expense of the general public, as railroads have been accused of using their power to secure subsidies, favorable regulations, and other benefits that have helped them maintain their dominant position in the market. Despite efforts to regulate and break up rail monopolies, they continue to hold significant power in the United States.
