The Pennsylvania highway system
Author: Robert G. Williamson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Roads
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
Expenditures for highway activities rose significantly over the decade. However, revenues from liquid fuels taxes and motor license fees, and federal grant-in-aid funds, historically the principal source of highway funds at the state level, provide a diminishing proportion of the total funds required for highways. The use of borrowed funds has correspondingly increased. The state legislature now controls resource consumption for capital expenditures via an individual project approval mechanism. The historical trend toward more centralized control and direction of state highway functions continues with Pennsylvania's establishment of a Department of Transportation in July, 1970. (Modified author abstract).

Entrepreneurship and Innovation in Automobile Insurance
Author: Samuel P. Black
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135659052
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
Entrepreneurs play a central role in economic growth and development, but how they do so is the subject of considerable debate. This book explains that process through an historical case study of an automobile insurance entrepreneur, Samuel P. Black, Jr., and Erie Insurance, the company he helped build. It also recounts the largely untold history of American automobile insurance. One of this study's central themes is the role of innovation in the entrepreneurial process. The rise of Erie Insurance from a four-person enterprise in Erie, Pennsylvania, in 1925 to the fourteenth largest property-casualty insurer today was the result, in part, of Black's relentless push to innovate. His continual efforts to cut costs, develop new products, satisfy customers, increase sales, and improve operations, all contributed greatly to the company's growth. A second theme is the automobile's dramatic impact on modern America. Its takeover of mass transportation provided the basis for the development of the automobile insurance industry and created many of the opportunities that Black and Erie Insurance capitalized on. These themes combine in the history of Black and Erie Insurance to illuminate the dynamic process by which the cultural, social, economic, and technological environment creates opportunities that entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial firms exploit, and how entrepreneurial actions stimulate economic growth.
