THE FUTURE OF AMERICAN TRANSPORTATION

With transportation dollars buying fewer and poorer passenger and freight services, the American Assembly series has turned its attention to America's mismanagement of its transportation industries. Seven authors agree that today's situation is "substantially shaped by our government policies," listing inadequate federal legislation, impractical planning, and actual misappropriation of public funds.
