At one point you appear to say you're OK with the 100 trucks, and at another you also seem to say you want them kicked out.

The truth is, if the program were frozen in time, the current evidence would seem to support your assertion that right now, the program is OK. If I find out tomorrow that a significant number of the Mexican drivers in the program are really working for a drug cartel, that would be different. For that matter, if I found out that the drivers in of the USA unions were working for such criminals, or some such scandal, that would change things too.

But I still have doubts about the future of this program. Once the government gets its foot in the door, many programs get bigger and more dangerous. We have enough bad drivers here without importing more.

My sincere thanks though, for showing how strutting while typing is not only possible, it's fun!

I am not typing just for the sake of typing, if that is what you mean. I have sincere concerns.

Sounds like you're glad Obama kicked out the 100 Mexican trucks.  The fact is that these particular Mexicans were better drivers than the average American driver and I think we need more good drivers here without expelling what we got.

"...not typing just for the sake of typing,"

Please forgive, I enjoy your style and am goofing off on an otherwise tedious Monday morning.  I got serious concerns too; I just try to avoid taking them too seriously...
