Truckers will be one of the last groups they mandate. Small percentage are vaxed and they are ornery.
What they will do is have some shippers, big companies, who require driver picking up load to be vaxed, and those loads will pay high dollar, so drivers on fence regarding vax will get jabbed.
Then continue to increase number of loads that require vax while lowering rates back to market rate.
Streamline immigrants to get commercial licenses, provided they get vaxed, to replace the holdouts.
That is the stupidest thing I have EVER heard. F that. That is the road to Democrat single party rule forever.
I don’t think you realize the lengths some truckers will go to to make sure no one drives a truck during a time like that. We are not talking about a bunch of pussified Antifa here.
Ornery is correct. Which is exactly why they have also been impossible to organize. Until now — PERHAPS.
My husband was an owner-operator cross-country trucker for over 40 years and he is straight out of central casting, 6'6" former semi-pro defensive tackle and ready to brawl when necessary. He will tell you truckers talk big and threaten shutdowns and group action all the damn time but NEVER follow through.
Remains to be seen if this time is different.
