    More wasted Tax Payer Dollars for the Census

    Not if we are already paying them. Between Unemployment and welfare, there should be enough people to cover the entire country with a multitude of people who speak different languages. There is nothing wrong with it, earning the benefits first, then helping the country second. Even if we...

    More wasted Tax Payer Dollars for the Census

    Saved 205 million compared to what? The census is easy to do, you hire people who want to receive unemployment and welfare do the work, saving millions and millions of dollars. No post cards being sent in five different languages, no flyers, no billboards with stupid poor english on them and...

    Runaway Toyota parts in my Kenworth?

    Streak, Dangerous? I would hope that a professional driver like you could understand and control the vehicle, unlike those who who are not professional drivers and/or can't control their vehicle. Glad it's fixed.

    An Analysis of the Operational Costs of Trucking

    It seems that there is no real explanation for the link and how this actually needs to be interpreted. With just the aggregates from a survey, it seems to be a bit meaningless. The data needs to be broken down a bit more and taken in account the different sectors within the industry.

    Wow!!

    Maybe a hypocritical elitist? I don't have a issue with calling out someone with a disease like others because there is a bit of an unethical issue here. Here he seems to be exploiting those who are in that exact position that he is depicting while having better care than most on both sides of...

    Panther & Expeditors Services. Why so slow?

    Well if that's the case, it is a cheap trick to use. If the company doesn't have the nerve to properly defend themselves with full discloser of who they are in a proper manner, then it reflects their attitude towards everything they do in business.

    GCVW is the weight of the trailer and the van combined, hence the word combined.

    Obama signs health care bill: Who won't be covered?

    Well 2011 will be the year of taxes and may slip back into a deep recession. The bush tax changes are going away, the cap gains will hit 39.5% again, then tightening up of IRS rules, the tightening up on banking regulations and the Wallstreet target - next year will be sad because we are in...

    What they sell at MATS???

    Take a drive up to Detroit to Truck and Tow, they will have everything you need, 10 ft sections of etrack, all the straps (they make them there) and all the fancy rings. By the way, I never used my rings in the van and only three times with the truck.

    Obama signs health care bill: Who won't be covered?

    Yea that's true, it is tax deductible when there is money, but for the employee, it isn't deductible. To be exact they screwed with the threshold of when you can write off your medical expenses. They added new prescription taxes (adding to the cost of health care) - we pay They increased...
