    What would war with Russia look like?

    Have to look a little deeper than that. 20 percent of the workforce would only represent a small portion of it. You have to look at everything tied to the military personal to defense contractors. Then, you must follow the impact to every other business that purchases and sells items to foreign...

    Carriers race to the bottom

    Sure. Many nameless carriers are all for quality service if they can get it for free. If not, you wouldn't have the goofy stuff going on you see now. Same with the multi's. If carriers can get something covered cheaper, they will in many instances do it whether they have trucks available or not...

    Carriers race to the bottom

    Very true. When you see a carrier send a load offer out to multiple trucks to see who will do it the cheapest, I believe you had your answer then. Some figured it out and some didn't.

    Carriers race to the bottom

    I think you have many carrier's motives backwards. Most look at profit long before they look at any kind of service performance.

    What would war with Russia look like?

    What planet are you living on? A large percentage of our economy is dependent upon other nations. So yes, to a degree, it is about the money. I don't think we should be in other countries business but at the same time, I don't think most would hypothetically agree that it would be ok for say...

    Carriers race to the bottom

    Probably will depend on whether they offer freight to the customer at a lesser rate or just pad their pockets. As long as freight remains strong, will likely be for padding their pockets. Will have to see how my stocks do in the upcoming months.

    Carriers race to the bottom

    Is it me, or does it seem like two of the larger carriers are in a mad race to the bottom? I find it interesting that the economy and freight are picking up and some nameless carriers are cutting rates. Some interesting info being generated out of the carrier forums.

    Sen. Harry Reid's Back To The Future Op-ed.

    Interesting opinion from 94. Almost sounds like a Republican. Have to remember at the time they didn't have a political value. And now they do. Should have taken his own advice back then.

    What would war with Russia look like?

    I haven't read anywhere that people are wanting us to go to war. Saying they are a 'regional power" and such is foolish. So was Germany and Hitler. The problem here is we are perceived as weak. Have to look at the bigger picture. "don't cross this red line" , apology tours, and "resets" puts our...

    What could go wrong? Obama said just today that Russia was just a small regional country. http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2014/03/obama-says-russia-is-regional-power-not-americas-top-geopolitical-foe/

    74 yo woman freed after 32 years in jail

    It is a shame. All too often the politics of a prosecutors office win over sensible justice. Look for more cases as new forensics and DNA testing are overturning many convictions.

    Gay discrimination

    I don't disagree with the information, but it still appears as scientific theory at this point.
