“Pretty much the ports, the Long Beach, and then Galveston Texas–where some of this stuff is coming in–for every 17 loads there is one truck driver to do it.”

Eventually they’ll figure out that if more truckers are needed, they’ll have to pay wages needed to attract the additional people, as wage competition has gotten far worse, given that our government is paying something like $20/hour to NOT WORK.

...and yes, that means higher prices for all in this country, much higher.
