Which statement describes a legal means used by the companies that built the transcontinental railroad to cut costs? A. They cut the salaries and bonuses of company executives. B. They paid low wages to immigrant workers. C. They used Native Americans as forced labor. D. They overlooked unsafe working conditions
B They paid low wages to immigrant workers like the Chinese. Unfortunately this was legal because there were no laws guaranteeing the rights of immigrant workers. So the government paid them half as much money, even though people like the Chinese actually beat the other workers of the Railroad by a slight margin. Hope this helps!
