    It easy to run around the PA turnpike most times. If staring from Ohio up by 80, you can take 80 to Woodland Pa and go 153 to 322 to State College PA to 22 to Harrisburg. You can take 80 to I-99 to State College then 22 to Harrisburg PA

    Sadly, you have to look at the way politicians and bureaucrats look at it. If the loads delivers in Pa., then the end consumers there have to pay for the rate hike. If the load is just passing through the state, or originates in Pa. going to another state, then the end consumers in those other states have to pay for the raise. Two outa three ain't bad!

    Why should the broker pay?

    It all makes a circle in the end anyway.

    I seem to recall that's the health secretary that ordered nursing homes to accept covid patients and he/she pulled her/his own elderly mother out of a nursing facility before the order took effect.
