In Canada the government started seizing the trucks and bankrupting independent truckers.

Sure Xiden’s handlers would step in and do the same here if it takes off.

Like in Ayn Rand’s novel, you cannot extort another’s labor and talents, not without overwhelming force. And then, the labor will be lackluster and sabotaged.

The graphic is based on all truck shipments stopping. No chance in hell of even coming close to that.

While I am sure some truckers will obey this, call me skeptical they will get enough to consistently stick with this to have any real impact.

I support their cause, but just doubt that you can get enough to keep NYC starved. Especially when you got Mexicans who can’t even speak english driving these things anymore.

Few long-haul trucks actually enter NY City

To have any effect, they need to boycott Northern New Jersey between Palisades and Brunswick, Westchester, Hunts Point.

As much as I would like to see it happen, I can’t see this thing being sufficient to have any serious impact. I would certainly love to be proven wrong on that.

Very small loads would make room for about 30 illegals in the truck. Leave with empty truck.

So, any impact or spotty issues?

Looks like it might be more fizzle than flash.
