Representing railroad companies in no way precludes espousal of the labor theory of value...

According to DiLorenzo it does. Per his book, Lincoln was only interested in corporate welfare for the big railroad companies and suchlike.

No, not really. In fact I believe DiLorenzo mentions The Lincoln's endorsement of labor theory at one point in the book.

Per his book, Lincoln was only interested in corporate welfare for the big railroad companies and suchlike.

Again, not really. The Lincoln was heavily interested in corporate welfare, but not ONLY interested in corporate welfare. Then again, contrary to popular myth, corporate welfare and handout welfare go hand in hand when it comes to matters of government.
