Do you really think those increased costs stay with the truck?

Of course not. Increasing the cost of cheap globalist crap makes it more competitive for manufacturing and food production to be more local, that's a good thing. I wonder what percentage of the goods in those humongous trucks that have taken over the interstates is from China and other third world cesspools.

Probably a significant amount; however, trucks are the primary mode of delivery for goods in this country, and even if they do, that is no reason to overly tax the trucking industry.

I understand how you feel; my wife feels the same way, and trucks DO account for much of the road damage. But I believe the govey simply finds another industry to tax, and perhaps supported emotionally by a large segment of society, for its own nefarious purposes.

We must look closely to determine the actual purpose.
