At the turn of the 20th Century, something changed in the way we handled freight: the advent of the truck. I have a fun ramble across Texas as I talk about the history of trucking in the USA and the political-economic decisions made around it. We also get into discussions of purchasing power parity and externalities. Fun stuff, and we prove that we can chat about Economics in games other than Victoria 3! :-)
