An unofficial committee of three local counties passed two resolutions Wednesday calling for new ownership for the Carolina Southern Railroad while acknowledging the railroad is essential for Horry and Marion counties in South Carolina and Columbus County, NC.

That purpose is to wrest ownership of the railroad from Ken Pippin and his family.
Since when, in America, is it the purpose of one government or a group of governments to decide who should own a private business?
