    Equiptment use fees

    each of those points has a qualifier behind it and that determines if it can be used. For example a number of those would not be use in this profession because of the regulatory and service nature of the business we are in. If they didn't do that, then there would be such a mess of things with...

    $265,000 to welfare in a few years-

    You know once upon a time people lived and worked without issues of what they didn't have. Then a bunch of people came up with the idea that they needed to help the "Poor" because they were poor but those who they called poor didn't felt that they were poor but worked with what they got. These...

    Detroit SWAT team assaults Mom for taking on the CPS

    There is more to the story than this. The women made threats, shot at cops and she was warned about her behavior at other times. IT wasn't all about not giving her kid meds. The swat team was called in after she made the threats by the way.

    EBORs Who Else is Disturbed by this Infringement

    You know there isn't a single infringement here, the constitution says the federal government can regulate interstate commerce and that is what they do regulate it. No one makes someone drive a truck as much as no one makes someone do a job they don't want to do. People have the freedom to...

    Garden Corner 2011

    K I meant Doesn't You Know there I have a problem typing and sometimes it cuts off the letters. THIS stupid keyboard that I'm stuck with until next month so cut me some slack. If you are in the same parking lot and hear a lot of screamming, then you know who it is.

    Observance is not Establishment

    So Leo, I am a bit puzzled by this because I see you are not being coherent in what you are saying - maybe it is the wind here. See here is the problem, as different Christians we all pray differently with different beliefs. Even though we are all Christians, there is a problem with some who...

    EPA......Rope A Dope....

    I guess I don't see this at all. I mean the government is not there to replace universities or companies who would like to sell the techonolgy or improve their product. TO be exact, outside of Nasa (which is questionable), there is not one government agency that can replace any private...

    Equiptment use fees

    Dave, I agree this is a gray area but people tend to forget who the IRS targets and how they look at things. The guy with 10 trucks and 20 contractors are not always the target, but if there is an issue with say how the deductions are taken and by whom, then it may be a flag for an audit. Having...

    Okla Tells barry to "Stick It"..Won't take Fed funds for barrycare

    The power who has? The feds? The Senators? The States? See Layout, the problem is the states don't want to make waves and there is not one governor or state senate has the balls to take on the feds through the tenth amendment. The best thing that can happen is a serious attempt to...

    Equiptment use fees

    Dave (Bruno), Here is the problem above all - THERE IS NO PROBLEM Take Phil's advice and get a second opinion not with employment lawyer but a tax lawyer. so make this clear ... You are not leasing out the truck to the contractor, you are leasing the truck out to the carrier. You are...

    Okla Tells barry to "Stick It"..Won't take Fed funds for barrycare

    Learn how the system worked before we elected our senators directly then you can see what power they have. The system was setup to allow the state to be represented in the congress by the senators, state business wasn't what is considered a quick solution thing or directly tied to the people.

    EPA......Rope A Dope....

    You serious? a federal government agency being valuable? I think it was misconceived, a monster before it was implemented and removes rights of the individual from its decision making process. NO other agency has been as bad for the country as the EPA, even the Wilson and his Justice...

    Fuel prices

    Yea right. Any of you want to pay my bills? I'm not a frickn' teamster who gets paid for striking. Fuel prices are high because of speculation in the market and the value of the dollar. If we want to get the fuel prices down, then raise interest rates, bring back some confidence in the...

    Apology to EO

    I'm with Turtle with this one. I didn't see a thing wrong with anything you said other than where you posted it - wrong forum.

    Fuel Surcharge & Carrier Obligation

    Government loads are required to GIVE a FSC but there is absolutely no obligation for the carrier to pass that onto the contractor. It it simple, if you have a contract that has a FSC clause in it, then expect one. IF you don't, then don't expect one. There is no moral or ethical obligation...

    If you were President for a day-

    I would fire Geitner and his entire, most of the departments other than those which was actually required to run the country and write an executive order selling federal property that is not part of what the government should be doing.

    $265,000 to welfare in a few years-

    I would think that this would be a good thing for them to do but it is limited to a few things and they focused on handing money out as part of an institution which means the individual is left out. IF I need a computer, they don't want me to ask for one but to go through United Way or some...

    Tips?

    AND Roadking, Phil is talking about a gratuity being ethical, nothing more. His point seems to be that if it is a tip AFTER the services are done than it is ethical. I fully agree with him on this, if it is something that is billable and you do not provide it for free, charging for it or...

    I Seriously Need Some Expert Advice

    Why do people keep saying this? I mean HOS has never been a real issue with me because I am not looking at keeping the truck rolling 24/7. It actually helps out with sleep, I have no choice but to stop.
