The Trinket Section in Truck Stops would have considerable growth in sales.
I think steering is on the right side in Indian vehicles. That could make for some fun on the highway.
After seeing how well indian tech support works for computers, I'm sure they'll work well for truck drivers.

What it will kill is the independent trucker.
My bro runs a few trucks and I know that the regulations, COT, the recordkeeping, taxes and insurance not to mention the fines levied by government from time to time for oversights, plus the repairs on the trucks and the cost of tires is high.
Outrageous! Of course once the word "Union" is mentioned the knee-jerk reaction on FR will be to fire everyone and hire foriegners. These people need to be kept out of the US.

"Thank you! Come again!"
I'm not entirely sure that the term "highly trained" and "truck driver" belong in the same sentence.
But ignoring that, I'd rather have an English speaking Indian driving a US truck, duly inspected, than a Spanish speaking Mexican driving a Mexican truck on US roads.
I suspect that the Indian drivers (the ones that flunked the computer tech support class) will be driving on the new highway from Mexico to Canada courtesy of the New World Order.

Corsi has become quite the reactionary lately. Oh well.

Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my Viking Kitty/ZOT ping list!. . . don't be shy.
Don't get me wrong, I deplore such a development. It does have one silver lining, though: you might be able to get some decent food at truck stops in the future.
Nevermind that cope got the Zot for being a troll....
Notice who wrote this column?
Seems to me that NOW Corsi is shilling for the unions.
Imagine that.
And you notice that he's moved on from the NAU BS to the "They're gonna take our JERBS!!!" paranoia? It probably plays better to his target audience.
Let's see what job we can outsource to an Indian
I listen to news and talk on XM radio. The commercials they do have have a lot of ads looking for truck drivers. Based on that, and the estimated shortage cited in the article, it sounds like a reawonable way to get truck drivers to get the needed hauling done. Otherwise, it will show up in the economy more as slow and late deliveries at a slightly higher price.
