    I guess with the title like that everyone will jump here on board. But seriously did you check out what can we get when we're doing our taxes next year? Farmers are getting money from the government. I heard about $7,500 given to truckers. Is there going to be more? Do you know specifics?
    I heard truckers should be getting relief in some way with money being returned to us for ####ty economy and lost work.

    Pay $130,000 and get back $7,500.

    Socialism, sign me up :)

    Seriously, $7,500 would cover my fuel bill for 2 weeks.. Not like it would save any of us who are already in financial free fall.. Maybe it would cover bankruptcy costs, lol

    It's not really socialism if they're giving money back to you that they pilfered from your efforts in the first place.

    I thought this was gonna be a go fund me for some trucker that needed help from the title. But since it is not I am trying to figure out why we would get anything?? Did I miss something while I was working?

    Sign me up. I’m still excited about recently learning that I can make up to $51k, and still draw my SS at 62. Retirement is too expensive, and from what I hear boring and overrated anyway.

    I think it's a tax credit for when we file our taxes

    I think you better check those figures with a reliable source.

    The bill to provide the $7,500 tax credit to truckers has not passed congress. It was assigned to a House committee at the end of March, and seems to have pretty much died there. It's HR 7348 if you want to look it up.
