    If you love animals, this should torque you off!

    Well yes and no, but see the problem we have in this country is we are lacking the same compassion that we demand others to have. On top of that, one of our allies on the world stage about 70 years ago did a mass killing of their pets under the guise of war, I have been told one of the...

    Big U.S. firms are hiring overseas while cutting jobs at home

    OVM, Once I explained how the world system works but no one cared to listen. Labor costs are not reflecting our economic conditions (think Union wages). BUT at this moment, one of the other factors involved is taxes, we need to do something about it and not worry about the revenue we produce...

    EBORs Who Else is Disturbed by this Infringement

    Realistically now, outside of costing you more money (which is not an issue for me because I don't work for FedEx) and because they don't work well with your truck, is there any real difference?

    Taxation 101

    You know Leo, the problem isn't liberalism, it clearly is the idea that conservatives are not the same as a liberal. See Leo, for the past 40 years, not one congress who was in control of either party has done much to lower the tax rates without closing off write offs. Even under the great...

    Federal Aviation Administration Can Not Keep Air Traffic Controllers Awake

    For some reason I don't find myself being sympathetic to the ATC people caught, I say fire those who were caught and then figure out what is wrong with the FAA. Maybe bringing back congressional oversight to the regulations may be one huge solution.

    If you love animals, this should torque you off!

    I think as bad as this sounds, there are a couple other countries who have been waging a fight against dogs in the past few years, killing them when they get caught by very cruel means.

    A candidate with guts?

    I'm not seeing one single person in the GOP outside the newbies who could actually win. The names mentioned are just retreads and headliners for today's news but as several Democratic strategists have said over the past two weeks, the republicans' can not afford to waste time with trying to...

    EBORs Who Else is Disturbed by this Infringement

    Again there is no infringement, you don't like the rules, don't drive. The Supreme Court upheld the right of the government to regulate interstate commerce. This means that if we drive state to state, we fall under their rules. IF the state decided to follow the fed's rules, then that means...

    Michele Bachmann Tax Day rally draws small crowd

    Well... he appears to be more of a friend to them than Bush and other presidents have been. Regardless where the money TARP came from, this administration is in charge of handing the money out. They didn't enforce the rules that should have been enforced and wall street people made more money...

    Glenn Beck Attacks Springsteen For Trying To Draw Attention to the Plight OF A Vietna

    Re: Glenn Beck Attacks Springsteen For Trying To Draw Attention to the Plight OF A Vi Springsteen p*ssed on the spirit of the song long ago when he became politically involved and forgot he should stick to entertaining people not telling them who to vote for.

    done with FedEx Custom Critical

    Sorry but I keep hearing these rather dumb remarks about freedom popping up in a few forums. I know that trucking is not freedom, there are regulations that have to be abide by (regardless what our in-house constitutional scholars claim) and we have a set of requirements to meet in order to...

    West Coast Expediting

    I understand there is a lot of work there but the problem is finding a company who can capture the work for you. It doesn't matter what you drive, the company matters. I would look around there to find a company to drive for and not worry about anything like out here.

    Equiptment use fees

    Dave (bruno) First thing that comes to mind is the FedEx cases are politically motivated, with the help of the union and other outside sources. The second thing that comes to mind is my statement is proven by the very fact that the case(s) had to take in consideration the job, the person and...

    which engine?

    Wow.... GM makes their own 6 spd auto trans, and they buy the allison to stick in some vehicles. IF you want an allison, you can find a dealer who can special order it for you - however they will have to jump through hoops to get it. They also offer it in a van chassis (modified) for...

    The most reliable non CDL box truck.

    Hey Henboy, haven't heard from you in a long time. How's it been? I would look for an FL60 or something along that lines. A lot of them around cheap. If you get an older one, before I think 98, it will be a mechanical injection system. M2s are good and plentiful too. I just had my FL70 in...

    $265,000 to welfare in a few years-

    Dave, As an employer, I paid the unemployment insurance to the state, employees didn't pay into the system so they don't deserve anything, right? When I worked, I don't ever remember having a deduction line called Unemployment.

    Detroit SWAT team assaults Mom for taking on the CPS

    Gee Dennis, I got that part but you all don't get something else - YOU don't need a warrant to take a child into custody, read up on your family law.
