    "Brothers of the steel" is referring to fellow truck drivers. As for economics how has that been working out? Life is great for you if you're a fortune 500 executive or hedge fund manager but if you're a regular working man or woman the standard of living has declined significantly. At some point people need to realize that we're a world of unique peoples and cultures and not all just interchangeable economic units and that we have sovereign nations not just global economic zones. Also our value as a people and as a nation isn't determined entirely by our GDP.

    It seems like everyday there's a thread with some sort of heat towards foreigners. There's a whole list of American carriers in Motor Carriers section on here. Drivers don't get scammed by foreign ran companies. They willingly sign up to work for them, so maybe your heat is misdirected?

    The hate towards foreigners or as I call them invaders is well warranted. They don't have our business ethics and practices. They want to run a business here like they do in their own country where everyone is super corrupt and workers have no rights at all and that's not how we do business in a civilized country.

    That's not news for me. However it's not just Walmart, if it was then we wouldn't have a problem.

    Hate towards anyone is never warranted. Why do you think American businesses, especially big business, are less corrupt? Why do you believe that they are more ethical? What rights does the average worker truly have? Majority of folks can't even work at a job paying a livable wage. Many drivers have complained ad nauseum about the conditions of trucking alone, talking about how underpaid drivers are, and you want to tout American trucking companies as less ethical and place them on a pedestal?

    Oh you're hilarious. Pull the other one,


    Then read a history book or just open your eyes, to say companies in the usa at large treat their employees well is willful ignorance at best
