An effective Strike

Wrong thought! Hit the delete button and think of something more productive, not destructive!!

 

That's nice, you and Osama Bin Laden have something in common. Something to be proud of I guess.

 

The more and more I read things that come out of your head, the more respect I lose for you! Right now you are in the negative, and do you honestly think violenece solves ANYTHING? NO! As far as I am concerend you are the driver who gives us the bad image to the general public!

 

THE TRUCKERS REPORT DOES NOT TOLERATE THREATS OR VIOLENCE!


YOU will BE BANNED for POSTING ANY REFERENCE TO VIOLENCE!


Lucifer or joe or whoever you are....it's a good thing for you that I was not here...you would be gone for that post.

The next time, you will not be allowed back when you register with another name.


YOU will be watched closely!

 

NOPE as you can see I was referring to lucifer who posted a very violent post in your thread.
He went to the extreme of even posting a violent photo with it and describing in detail what to do to people.

We had to edit your thread because of it.

Don't want that on this BOARD. We keep The Truckers Report at a higher level then that.

Thanks

 

I can appreciate what you are trying to do. There is one problem though. The government is now a Corporate Government. It looks out for corporate interests because who do you think is paying for the politicians earmarks?

The only way that you can make a successful strike work is if ALL, or MOST truckers park their rigs and take a two week vacation at their homes with their families. I wouldn't count on anyone in Washington listening. The only voices that the politicians hear is MONEY and their own profits. Do you really think they will go against their interests for us? I don't think so. If truckers wanted to go on a "let's park it for a while" strike, I would be willing to help promote it. This is the only thing that I can see that will work. Another note to help promoting it is address this issue all along the I 70 corridor since that is the busiest highway in the nation. I live pretty much right along the interstate and I could go to the truck stops in my area and hand out flyers. Folks, we need to get this off the ground.

 

Deregulation was not all bad, I for one enjoy being able to have fresh fruit and vegetables year round. It is unlikely that without deregulation I would even have this job as that I live out in the corn patch away from any highways. Deregulation just meant that people had to compete instead of having a choke hold on their own fiefdoms. Some competed well and grew others fell by the wayside, happens in every industry. It tends to be good for the winners and the losers, well hopefully they learn and come back stronger. It is tough, I will grant you that and I hope you find success. I am curious though where did you find this reg about being unloaded in two hours? That is interesting if it is true. I hope it isn't good ol' trucker wishful thinking (I am Guilty of that). If a company lies and is crooked that isn't a government issue but rather a consumer issue. The consumers being perspective drivers. The onus is and should be on us to do our due diligence when picking a company. These boards provide just one valuable tool toward that end. Again on a personal note I hope you and yours are well in these tough times and hope you have many bright days coming.
