    If people under bid a posted rate there are dumber carriers than i thought, aside from it being deceptive on the brokers part , they should be banned from any site allowing that. On the other hand when rates or bussiness is better you wont have to listen to his sob story that he is only making 50 bucks. I would be happier for the guy that got it for $1000 than i would be hauling it for $600. Until people have standardized goals likely we will always get screwed on way or another unless they can limit a brokers comission. They limit our hours we work and when we can rest so why is that idea so far fetched.

    You really don’t understand the meaning of supply and demand.

    Your right when 100% of rules only apply to carriers. If the government can limit my income by hours i can work they should have the right to regulate brokers. Capitalism never had my bank account in mind i am pro union and right to organize. Also ever think that broker telling you he had 10 calls offering $600 just played you. Nah a broker eouldnt do that.

    So tell them to give it to the guy who's dumb.
    You have the right to form a union, boss has a right to fore for being union, rights work both ways.

    And the solution for too many regulations isn't more regulations.

    Would you mind, say a 100 of newer MC# carriers approaching you customers and proposing their, equally good services as yours, for half the price?
    That's part of free market and supply and demand too. I don't direct this to you individually because you are a sensitive and gentle and good person...based on your previous posts but... generally speaking. I see a lot of those bombastic capitalistic entrepreneurs but at the very sight of someone bringing a legit competition they start playing "those foreigners" , "those cheap freight haulers" cards. Part of the supply and demand is also hauling 1 dol per mile.

    That is exactly what WILL happen with this "rate transparency" ########, but none of you care as long as you drag everybody else down with you.

    What is the word behind the hashes? I don't know how to respond to that without knowing what you have hidden there....that's a complete lack of transparency on you part. Correct it, otherwise I have no clue of what you tried to say.
