I loathe unions, but if those teamsters are U.S. Citizens and work in the United States, they sure as hell get my vote to work over foreign nationals.

As of 2005, there were just over 3 million class A & B CDL truck drivers in the U.S. Less than 3% are union. And, of that, most were local and/or regional.

Where the unions come into play, big time, is the ports, rail yards, and terminals.

"Teamster thugs elated." We should ALL be elated!

I think the unions represent like 5 percent or less of all the truckers out there.

What exactly is the downside of not allowing a bunch of crappy worn-out mexican trucks with drivers we can't understand from driving here and causing accidents?

All American truckers, not just Teamsters are elated as are most Americans.
If you think Teamsters are thugs why don’t you go to the nearest Teamsters hall and tell them you think they are thugs.
If you do so please post pictures after the event.

One could do a lot worse than have the new Teamsters under Hoffa Jr. as an ally in any cause. Look up what he did in the Adams case, re-reported here in the last few days.
