Its a numbers game. To have 24/7 coverage, you are going to need more than 4 agents, probably 8-10 minimum. I wouldn't doubt it could be more like 12-16

So your saying we don't need a reason to go to war but killing a prominent position wouldn't be enough reason to go to war? Which is it?

Whoever is using the data makes their own judgement about the validity of what a poster says. I don't take every word written here as gospel. I use that information as part of my decision making process. But I also take into consideration who is saying it. You would be silly not to. I...

For 20 years, all I've heard is how the poor farmers don't get enough money and now that someone wants to pay our farmers more, you want to force low prices on them to subsidize your needs? That isn't capitalism, its socialism. Let the market dictate the prices, if China wants to pay $5 for...

Maybe they should leave him unprotected so a terrorist can murder him, then we'll have another reason to spend trillions more on war.

Getting 2-3 times market value for an export commodity is a good thing. We need more of that in the US imo. We rely too much right now on foreign sources. We lack home made American goods. Also getting 2-3 times market value isn't "giving away" the last time I checked. edit: the market...

That is fine, there is nothing wrong with that. More information / knowledge out there in the public is better for everyone in the end imo. No one is saying the information will be perfect but if I have 3 reputable posters telling me that XYZ Fleet Owner is a slow payer, I'm going to give a...

Why not just use Angie's List and direct people on here to use it as another research tool? If it was included in the relevant sticky's, we could simply tell people to search Angie's List as well. I honestly don't get why people are scared of liability. Some poor fleet owner isn't going to...

If it was me, I'd either drive it home and empty my stuff out and drop it off where it would get towed and leave the keys in it. Either that or leave it where it is and fly home. Whatever was cheaper. Again I would leave it where it would be towed away for safety purposes. Did they want...

and who cares is my opinion. What does it really matter if it was orchestrated by our government? Do you honestly believe that there isn't corruption in our government? Of course there is corruption. Or course there is stuff that happens behind the scenes. That is the reality, not the...

The problem is the cycle is getting shorter and shorter. Kids are literally having kids these days and its being glamourized

There is a difference between not being able to accept the rules and not knowing the rules.

But it taxes the people who actually can afford to buy those goods and services. It actually taxes the right crowd imo. Its almost like a consumption tax in that regard.

That's a bigger IF than the national deficit being eliminated. Reality is parenting on the whole isn't getting better, its getting worse, which is the reason why we are moving to a society where people don't want to put up with other people's lack of xxxx In this case, its a lack of...

How many CDL holders do you know that don't know of HoS? edit: its also the newby forum, and I find a lot of newby's get chased away by smart *** comments and tangents in there threads making fun of them.
