Amen!

[Ramius]

Whatever you say, Pablo.

[nicmarlo]

Whatsa matter, don’t have anything bad to say about your globalist, American-sellout buddies?

[Ramius]

OK... The Pablo comment was over the top. My apologies.

But on the larger question I simply fail to see the problem. So what if mexican or canadian trucks take their stuff all the way to market instead of being forced to offload to union trucks at the border?

US trucks can also get reciprocity into Canada and Mexico. So what? May the best truckers win.

I’m sure lots of people are just all broken up over any threat to the Teamsters deathgrip on the throats of business in the US. I guess I’m just not one of them.

[nicmarlo]

You fail to realize several things: they are exporting American jobs to Mexico. Not only is Bush & Co importing cheap illegal labor, claiming they are "just doing jobs Americans don't want to do," the good jobs are being shipped out, and it's not just in the trucking industry. The manufacturing industry, across the country, is going down the tubes. Now, when you have less people employed, such as at the ports that will be basically closing in Long Beach & LA because those jobs are ALSO being exported down to Mexico (that's why Mexican truckers will be bringing up the goods now), all the American businesses (including mom and pop stores) that DEPEND on American longshoreman...who will no longer be working, will be FOLDING. The towns that depend on these businesses will be tanking...

You see, it's NOT about Corsi. It's about greedy sellouts, greedy globalists and greedy elitists. The middle class America is being destroyed....good paying jobs are going away and taxes are going up, just so the corporate greedholders and globalists have their NAU and $$$$, that's "all" that matters.

[Sarajevo]

I'm no supporter of the Teamsters either. This issue, in Texas at least, is over the way that the state government is ramming the corridor down our throats. TxDOT and Perry are arrogant SOB's trying every trick in the book to have their TTC regardless of what we want. They won't listen to the voters.

The Teamsters are just reaping a benefit.

[RJL]

... and this extension of the corridor into Mexico will be financed how? Will the USA be required to pay for this?

No doubt the US will get to pay for it, but Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim will collect the road tolls for us himself.

Return to ostrich mode...stick head back into sand

“This is black helicopter material”.

The 400 yd. wide highway is in the works in Texas now. After extensive hearings throughout the affected region drew large heated protests, the State Legislature passed a law to delay any new state tollroads for two years so that they could study the matter further. This passed with a veto proof majority close to the end of the session. Gov. Rick “Goodhair” Perry (R-Mexico) waited until the Legislature adjourned for two years and then vetoed the Bill. (Gov. Goodhair was reelected last year with 39% of the vote in a 4 way race).
This is for real. Highways, railroad tracks, pipelines and utility ROW all in one massive ROW that will destroy small rural communties, scar the landscape, divide Couties (There is limited overpasses and acess) and no telling how much environmental damage.
Ironically, the same people who decry the Border Fence for it’s supposed environmental damage approve this monstrosity.
Welcome to the NAU!

[BnBlFlag]

And what poll shows only 20% of Texans support a fence on the Border? This is Bogus. A more true poll would show the opposite.
Perry talked a good game before the election concerning Border issues but it was all a big gigantic lis. “Goodhair” will be doing good to match his 39% if he runs for reelection.

[Ben Ficklin]

The exit polls last Nov.

Goodhair was reelected last year with 39% of the vote in a 4 way race).

The lege passed two different moratoria on public-private partnerships. Rick Perry vetoed the stronger version while the lege was still in session, and he signed the weaker version into law after the lege adjourned.
