Transportation Logistics and Economic Decline - Politics, Infrastructure and the Recession

Project Report from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Supply, Production, Logistics, grade: 100.00, , course: Transportation Logistics, language: English, abstract: This paper attempts to explain the cyclical relationship between the transportation industry and the U.S. economy. It begins by exploring the scope of logistics activities and their impact upon the economy, and then attempts to show how the economy in turn determines the state of the transportation industry and its ability to contribute to the economy. The paper will then reveal the impacts upon the transportation sector because of the recessionary conditions beginning in 2007 and continuing until 2010. Finally, we will reveal how political partisanship has the ability to depress the health of the transportation industry by withholding needed infrastructure funds and the effect that has upon the economy.
