I don't think he was joking.
I never wrote that you are stupid or ignorant. So that’s a straw man argument. I also don’t dispute that the demographics of truck drivers have changed over the last several decades. As have the demographics of the entire country. I simply do not believe the contention that the majority of a American truckers are foreign immigrants who speak no English.
Why so Cross, Tiff?
I will add that the phenomenon you describe is real and likely growing. Here’s an article:

So we’re not so much at odds as it might appear. In the future your description of the work force might be accurate. Of course in the future there may not be any drivers at all if the self driving vehicle development continues.
Thank you!
That makes a lot of sense, sadly enough...
