Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the Crà dit Mobilier of America, an influential corporation founded in the late 1800s that was closely tied with the construction of the Union Pacific Railroad. The author analyzes the close connections between those managing the Credit Mobilier and the Union Pacific Railroad and the way in which these connections allowed the Crà dit Mobilier to engage in corrupt, unethical practices. Due to the Crà dit Mobilier's political influence, they used their power to exploit the government for personal gain. Through a meticulous examination of records, the author unearths the Crà dit Mobilier's self-dealing, stock manipulation, and illegal methods of profiting from government contracts. This book provides critical insights into the corrupting influence of corporate power and the ways in which government oversight can be subverted.
