    Exactly.
    The war machine keeps turning.
    Greedy companies keep taking from the small guy.
    The stock market will crash again with its artifically inflated pricing.

    Unbelivable, any one can give a easy blanket statement on what THEY FEEL THEY SHOULD HAVE,hell i feel i should have 100 trucks making $40,000 a month a piece but i dont, listen kid i tell you what you put up all the seed money, take all the risk,50% chance you'll make it or wont make it, develop or find all the leads, the marketing, the connections, pay for building utilities, property leasing, payroll, training, Research and Development, hiring the right people, and then charge people what you want above what market dictates and let a average joe smoe come tell you hey man you making a 100 mill a year & i feel i deserve some of that because you pay me to little, would you honestly do that? Stop smoking the pipe and be realistic for a darn minute, THIS IS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, where any one & every one can become Rich and wealthy,GO HARD OR GO HOME is the mentality you need to have in this WORLD to be successful and make it ,you just havent figured out the FORMULA yet!

    That's no longer how this works. No longer how any of this works.
    There's a handful of people, like the madoffs, rothschilds, bilderburgs who control all the money. We are lucky enough to get our peasant pennies and told to be happy. No wonder why Boston tries to keep the unions around. People like you that think its ok for the handful to control all the money. I bet you think the IMF and the fed are a good thing as well?

    R u kidding, please tell me your kidding right?? U got to be kidding listen REAL GOOD to me because you obviously missed my point, I dont care about no IMF, MADOFFS or whoever, could honestly careless, my point however which you skated over is, THERES No REASON HOLDING any one back from accomplishing what they want PERIOD END OF STORY,Your SUCCESS with any thing small or Large depends on your MINDSET, thats the point im making, do the rich and top1% ers control this facade we call a country yes, do they dictate rates yes, but i also own my own trucking company and i can tell you for sure, I DONT HAUL FOR CHEAP, IF I DONT LIKE THE RATE SHE SITS, so whos holding me back from making money? Whos TELLING me you better work or else? Whos motivating me to go out and do more? I worked my @$ s off to buy my TRUCK, didnt no bank,credit card, or loan company help me get started, i got down and HAD TO GET MINES OUT THE MUDD, RAW AND UNCUT just like that,didnt no angel investor invest in me, I INVESTED IN MYSELF, DAY AFTER DAY, NIGHT AFTER NIGHT I WORKED AND WENT WITHOUT FOR OVER A YEAR until i got it, DIDNT NO ONE GIVE ME ANYTHING lil homie, IN THIS LIFE you got 2 choices either "BE ABOUT IT, or TALK ABOUT IT" Who is it, you are full of EXCUSES, thats your PROBLEM, maybe if you minded your own business and focused on what you are trying to accomplish if any then maybe youll be right up there WITH THE "ELITE" i dont try and keep up with the JONESES but i can tell you this if i wanted to be up there i know i can, unfortunately you have let the WORLD consume you, now im done talking, i have to finish telling this broker that i DEMAND $3.00 A mile to take this load, have a great day!

    Than make a change. This is America. You have the right and ability to change your own life. If you don't like it make the change.
    But stop whining about others doing better than you.

    Easy with the screaming killer. I'm happy for you. I am. I've made my own path in life. I stopped chasing the fake american dream. I saw what the government did to those people during katrina in 05. I've seen what the elitists did to the working man when they crashed the market in late 07/ early 08. I lost everything I had, along with family and friends. I operate on cash only. No more 401 k.
    I don't need to own trucks. It is not my cup of tea. Good for you for demanding $3 per mile. Scary that you fight for that when I got that with an f 550 hauling broke down cars. You owners should be getting $5 per mile. That goes back to my elitist controlling comment. The big megas and 1% ceo and share holders screw you guys horribly. And most of you let it keep happening. That's why I'm company driver only. No need to stress and have a heart attack over a rigged game. Let the Rothschilds, Bilderbergs, Madoffs, Bankrupt of Americas, Government motors fight each other for the supreme penny that they cannot take with them when they die. People like that disgust me.
    I've chosen not to live my life the way those penny pinchers have. And I'm better for it. Enjoy your day sir.

    BT, you're whining. You have said all our problems are someone else's fault. You could not be more wrong. Your problems are your own. Not anyone else's.

    The AMERICAN DREAM hasn't died, it hasn't changed.
    Its still what YOU want it to be.
    You make your own dream. Its up to you to make it happen, not anyone else.

    Talk about blinders.......

    Ok. My american dream is making enough to get buy. I have my plan, I'm about to engage it, and live my dream. I just saw what really happens in the world today. My blinders have been off for years. Money is the root of all evil. I only chase enough of it now to live. No longer live in pursuit of it.
