How about that strike. The scoop around Western Pa, is the owner operators are going on strike tomorrow. When they had that strike in the 80's JB Hunt was one of the victims who had their tires slashed for not striking. We can't afford to strike, we are living paycheck to paycheck now. If it comes down to it, we may be headed for the picket lines too. We are not owner operators either. Personally the fuel prices are killing this country. Everyone is jacking up their prices, who can afford to live? My hubby, and son who is in the army, says we need a revolutionary war in this country...who knows where we are headed.

This is just obscene! I for one hope that congress would grow a set and immediately end the big oil welfare going on here that IS NOT NEEDED. But they won't. Don't any body hold your breath for congress to grow a big enough set for that. The oil lobby and special interest groups will out weigh them doing any thing that is good for the general good of the people they were elected to represent.

I believe there should only be two demands:
1. Mandatory 100% pass through FSC to the 'TRUCK'
2.Mandatory 100% Full disclosure from Brokers and 10% cap on They're rates. They should never be allowed to hold over 50% of the rate for being the middleman.
Remember must have a demand and it must be simple...
Pass it along...
