What good is a healthy bottom line for your industry, if the average American and small business can’t afford your product?

I refuse to spend $100 to fill my gas tank every week. That means I drive less, people drive less. That means transported goods cost more.

That means small businesses fail or don’t start up in the first place.

Employment and wage increases are stagnant and haven’t kept pace with fuel inflation.

Your solution?

Maybe so, but that has nothing to do with fueling tractors, individuals driving to work, transporting goods to markets.

Consumer prices are up as a result...Wages are not.
