The railroads paid the government over time for land granted to them that cost government nothing.I'm not sure if you're just completely ignorant of economics or if you don't know how land grants actually worked. Why don't you explain, in your own words, how the land grant system operated? You are totally unable to demonstrate how much money the government handed the railroad in subsidies, because the answer is ZERO. So now you're denying that the land grants even existed? If anything, the RR subsidized the government. This isn't even a logically valid statement. What you are showing if that you are clueless as to what a subsidy is. So why don't you explain, in your own words, what you think a subsidy is, and I can correct you? |
