This book argues that the acquisition and implementation of government-owned railways is essential in a democracy because it will prevent the formation of monopolies and private interests from influencing political power. The author, a leading advocate for public ownership of utilities, argues that private ownership in America has led to inefficient, corrupt, and unsafe conditions due to profit incentives rather than public interest.
