One key issue of the Populist platform was the demand for the regulation of railroads and other monopolies. Populists believed that these entities exploited farmers and workers by charging exorbitant rates for transportation and services, which hindered their economic viability. They advocated for government intervention to ensure fair pricing and competition, reflecting their broader goal of addressing the economic inequalities faced by rural Americans in the late 19th century.
