Just because you can't get paid what you think you're worth doesn't means all blue collars workers should have to work for poverty wages so you can feel superior...

Sorry but I'm unclear on you who you are referring to in your post. If you were referring to me personally, I don't have to be concerned about feeling superior as I already am paid what I am worth. I do not need to be 'employed' and I would lose most of my value if I were forced to join a union since my value would then be measured by the lowest producing person in my profession. People who do not believe they are being paid what they are worth are the ones typically with superiority issues. And there are certainly lots of people who are paid well above what they are worth because the laws allow for corruption of the market and avoidance of the real market value of their jobs and skills. For instance, if you are unable to build a school building for anything less than the highest cost that anybody in the marketplace can come up with, then what the work is worth has nothing to do with its real value but rather it is related to an inability to have comptetition (ie, a free market).

But back to the initial point: How exactly do truckers going on strike relate to illegals wanting to void our borders - unless you recognize that they are all being backed by the same communist groups?
