When the yearly take-home pay for truck drivers hits $12,000 a year, they'll just be more jobs that Americans no longer want to do, anyway.

Oh well, there's still plenty of high paying jobs for these former, American, truck drivers in the construction trades. Aren't there?

People had better come to realize the impact of the trucking industry has on the welfare of the entire US. Sooner or later, everything in the US gets there by truck.

You want to have a 'Mexican trucker' strike when they end up with a significant part of the US hauling business? (rhetorical question)

If you think that OPEC was a major interruption back in the 70's, just wait until this scenario plays out. A third world shithole will bring the US to it's knees without firing a shot.
