Argentina's Parliament has approved a bill to create a new publicly owned company to operate the railroad system and return a strategic sector to the public domain. The railwayw were privatized under previous neoliberal administrations. The bill places emphasis on efficiency, which many have believed can only be achieved by private industry. Even the opposition voted for the bill, indicating overwhelming support for the measure and bringing the nationalization of the railways one step closer. Laureano Ponce reports from Buenos Aires for teleSUR.
