How to Balance "Benefit" and "Public Welfare" in Railway Freight Reform

Railway freight reform to meet public expectations is a difficult problem on the way to reform. Railway ticket prices have remained "unchanged" since 1995. Low freight rates and poor management have led to huge losses of the railway, so some experts speculated that the railway will "raise ticket prices", which has become a heated debate on the Internet, and "railway ticket prices" has become a hot topic of public discussion. For a long time, the principle of public welfare has stood out, and most people are opposed to it. The railway should raise the price of ticket according to the market demand, which is undoubtedly not feasible in the short term. There will be a lot of criticism and abuse, and "low price" means loss. From 1997 to 2012, several sleeper tickets from West Beijing to Wuchang were posted, with the price maintained at 280 yuan.
