This is a reproduction of the argument presented by Edward Atkinson before the Railway Committee in March 1873. Atkinson argues against the State undertaking to buy, equip, or operate railroads. It offers insights into the economic and political debates surrounding railroad development in the 19th century United States. This document provides a valuable historical perspective on the role of government in regulating and potentially owning key infrastructure. Atkinson’s arguments reflect the laissez-faire economic philosophy prevalent at the time and offer a counterpoint to arguments for state intervention. This work will appeal to historians, economists, and anyone interested in the history of railroad development and the ongoing debates about the role of government in the economy.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
