The American people are sick and tired of the corruption that is destroying America! We therefore declare a GENERAL STRIKE on the weekend of October 11-13, 2013! Truck drivers will not haul freight! Americans can strike in solidarity with truck drivers!

Michael Savage mentioned something like this a few years back that if all truckers simply stopped right where they are across America at a pre-agreed apon time, the US economy would literally stop dead in its tracks.

I’m always on the trucker’s side. Seems like a tough job.

Get a life! If you don’t like your job, seek employment elsewhere like most people do and stop whining. You all look like spoiled brats when you hinder other Americans trying to get to work. Put it in writing and canvas Congress like the system was designed to air grievances and stop holding up traffic. Waa! Waa !

It would never work because most truckers are independents and they’d always find someone hungry enough to carry the load, even if they have to double the fee.

“I’m always on the trucker’s side. Seems like a tough job.”

It is!

Brutal Hours—I start at 0300 and work until finished finished or 14 hours..which every is first

Absolutely crazy,ridiculous DOT rules and regs

Customers screaming why their order didn’t arrive 6 hours earlier...etc

Trucking companies bringing in cheap overseas/Mexican labor to replace us trucking veterans.

Been there, done that, wore out the T-shirt. Congress thinks we have no choice but to let them screw us daily. I think this is a great plan and I support the truckers. If they snarl the highways I will bring coffee and donuts to the Patriots.

Independent truckers usually don’t belong to unions.

Yeah that always works doesn’t it.

You have to be kidding. We have been screaming for relief from Obama care, for areal investigation of Benghazi and for cheaper fuel, over and over . Writing Congress, and emailing is a waste of time.

Congress doesn’t give a red rats ass until they are pushed HARD. They do not look like spoiled kids to me. They look like people who are fed up> we are all fed up.

Your suggestion to put it in writing and canvas Congress is a friggin joke. WTF do you think we have ben doing.>
It hasn’t worked so far and it will not work in the future.
Congress needs a push. Actually they need a psuh right out of office.,

Which is exactly why an independent stike would never hold.

Truckers get shorted now and are hungry, they’d easily find someone to carry a load even at double the fee for a few days.

I agree with their positions, but not their tactics. The last thing we need is for our truck drivers to start going French on us!
