Voorkant
0 Recensies
Brookings Institution Press, 2010 - 188 pagina's
Vast economic inefficiencies and a lack of innovation are the legacy of a transportation policy still seeking to find the right balance of public and private provision.In Last Exit, Brookings analyst Clifford Winston reminds us that transportation services and infrastructure in the United States were introduced by private firms and that the case for public takeover of private systems was weak. Accordingly, he assesses the case for privatizing and deregulating the system to greatly increase Americans' satisfaction with how they and their goods move throughout the country.
