Joe is old enough to remember the gas shortages of the 1970s. But in his state of dementia, he's forgotten.
Brandon don’t care. He’s at home in Delaware soaking up the sun and surf.
Trucking companies have been screwing drivers by classifying them as independent contractors for years.
While the headline suggests this redounds to the Supreme Court's responsibility, it doesn't. California's Democrats have caused this mess, and trucking as both an industry and service to businesses in California will take a hit. ALL courtesy of California Democrats.
California. Democrats. California. Democrats.
Pete Buttigieg is far too busy sticking foreign objects up his keister, including his head, to be worry about his job.
I’m not a spring chicken.
In the last few months I have seen more tandem trucks on the highways than I have ever seen before in my life.

If you are an out of state contractor, I don’t see how California could keep you out.
I imagine that if you are out of state and have your own business, California can’t interfere with California companies contracting with out of state businesses for transportation services.
I would expect it only impact California Businesses contracting directly with California Contractors.
Very misleading. Its woke-leftists in California who want to regulate and control independent drivers. All SCOTUS did was say, that the law is generally within california constitutional power to do so.
Stop doing business in California. Set up terminals just outside the state, drive the load to the terminal, and let California pick it up from there. Same thing, different direction, for outbound.
The State of California wants unions to be able to ‘organize’ truck drivers.
And maybe some more money will get placed in the campaign kitties of California’s politicians.
The present Supreme court following constitution. Even the tenth amendment. They are trying to return as many decision to states.
So California is free to screw itself up. Unfortunately, we all will be paying.

“intent of the Legislature in enacting this act to ensure workers who are currently exploited by being misclassified as independent contractors instead of recognized as employees have the basic rights and protections they deserve under the law, including a minimum wage, workers’ compensation if they are injured on the job, unemployment insurance, paid sick leave, and paid family leave. By codifying the California Supreme Court’s landmark, unanimous Dynamex decision, this act restores these important protections to potentially several million workers who have been denied these basic workplace rights that all employees are entitled to under the law.”

Haven’t you heard? We are in the “Liberal World Order” by announcement of Brian Deese.
And he said things will either stay the same or get worse, in effect, But
“we have to stand our ground.”
Hey Mr. Landscaper, I need a truck & trucker.
I have some business cards here. Don’t forget to tell your trucker that Pedro sent you because I get a two percent commission. My address and phone number are on the back of each card.
Yeah, these higher gas prices made a can of corn at Walmart go from about 87 cents a can to over $1.76 cents the last I saw. Thankfully we are retired and can plan our trips away from the house so that we hit more than just one place while out and not be making multiple trips around.
