This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For close to 100 years, America's surface freight industries, primarily rail and trucking, operated under the protective wing of the U.S. government. In 1980 Congress, finding vast inefficiencies in the two industries, substantially deregulated both, opening them at last to market competition. Deregulation has brought with it many changes—for firms within the industries, for their labor force, and for shippers and their customers. Clifford Winston, Thomas M. Corsi, Curtis M. Grimm, and Carol A Evans provide a comprehensive evaluation of the effect of the deregulation legislation on the rail and trucking industries. According to the authors, deregulation has made substantial progress in solving the two most vexing problems of the surface freight transportation industry—excessive rates in the trucking industry and insufficient returns on investment in the rail industry. Competition and efficiency have returned to both industries, and although the labor force in each has suffered wage and job losses, shippers and their customers have gained roughly $20 billion a year in benefits. The authors recommend policies that would continue to promote competition and the efficient use of highway and railway infrastructure.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several of the papers in this volume are concerned with assessing both the timing and the impacts of deregulation and regulatory reform in the US transportation sector. Of increasing interest is the importance of productivity growth and the role played by new technologies in a more competitive market environment. Four of the papers in this volume deal directly with these issues in the context of motor carriers and railroads, two sectors which have been operating under substantially reduced regulatory constraints for the past twenty years in the US. Although the financial condition of US railroads has improved since 1980, there is still some concern regarding their long run viability as private enterprises. Accordingly, one of the papers considers the potential for further reductions in railroad costs through transcontinental mergers, a controversial issue due to the small number of railroads that remain in the industry.

Book Synopsis Sweatshops on Wheels by : Michael H. Belzer
Download or read book Sweatshops on Wheels written by Michael H. Belzer and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2000 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long hours, low wages, and unsafe workplaces characterized sweatshops a hundred years ago. These same conditions plague American trucking today. Sweatshops on Wheels: Winners and Losers in Trucking Deregulation exposes the dark side of government deregulation in America's interstate trucking industry. In the years since deregulation in 1980, median earnings have dropped 30% and most long-haul truckers earn less than half of pre-regulation wages. Work weeks average more than sixty hours. Today, America's long-haul truckers are working harder and earning less than at any time during the last four decades. Written by a former long-haul trucker who now teaches industrial relations at Wayne State University, Sweatshops on Wheels raises crucial questions about the legacy of trucking deregulation in America and casts provocative new light on the issue of government deregulation in general.

This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Economic Assessment of Surface Freight Transportation Deregulation Regulatory reforms during the late 1970 sand early1980s dramatically transformed the structure and performance of the U.S. surface freight transportation industry. After four decades of gradual decline, the number of firms in the interstate trucking industry exploded, increasing from 16,000 in 1975 to more than 33,000 in 1985. Real trucking rates fell nearly 20 percent over the same period. Deregulation of the rail industry led to mergers and consolidations that have slashed the number of large (Class I) carriers from 73 in 1975 to 26 in 1985. At the same time that real average revenue per ton-mile declined by 21 percent, real net railway operating income rose by over 160 percent. The structural and performance changes associated with transport "deregulation" generated substantial redistributions of wealth among carriers, labor, shippers, and final customers and dramatically altered the costs and organization of transportation services. Many of these consequences were anticipated in the debate over deregulation; others have emerged during the regulatory transition. In general, economic deregulation has led to net social benefits. However, three issues-- motor carrier safety, railroad pricing for captive shippers, and increased concentration in both industries-- have attracted growing public attention and raised questions about the desirability of competitive transportation industries. This study surveys the current state of the U.S. trucking and railroad industries and discusses developments that may merit policy attention.
