There is a slight difference here between "going back" to rate regulation pre-Staggers and re-regulating under the auspices of Staggers. What the NITL is saying is that there are competition caveats pertaining to Staggers that simply have not been enforced, so why not start to enforce them, especially now that the idea of overcapacity is a thing of the past? <br /> <br />It goes to the heart of the fight for survival our brick and mortar industries face under the threat of global competition. Here we are with a trade deficit, farmers struggling, the steel industry still struggling, the U.S. aluminum industry close to extinction, U.S. car manufacturers facing the possibility of bankruptcy, etc, ect, ect, and what do our U.S. railroads do?!? They charge captive shipper rates to our domestic producers while charging overseas importers cut throat rates, practically subsidizing the importation of Chinese goods on the backs of our domestic goods. Shouldn't it be the other way around, if indeed U.S. railroads are American owned?
