    Senator Opposes milage tax

    I THINK that is when that tax was first imposed. I seem to remember that it has been dropped and imposed again from time to time to pay for other wars. I don't remember the entire story exactly. I don't believe for one second that it is a given that the gallon tax would go away and only be...

    Senator Opposes milage tax

    The gallon tax MIGHT go away. Then again, are we not paying a tax on something, I forget what, phones maybe? That was put on to pay for a war that pre-dated WWI?

    Re: West Coast Runs Reconsidered

    Things are changing quickly. We are starting to climb out of a few holes, FINALLY. The truck will be paid off late next year. That will open up things a bit. We just keep plugging away and exploring what is going on out there.

    Oh, I know, I never stop. When I have I ask HARD questions. So far I have not heard what I wanted to hear. The recruiter at Panther just laughed.

    She was good. For some reason I trusted her. Not many politicians I can ever said that about.

    Atlas is shrugging, something leftists think never happens

    Yep, that is why I would have chickens, rabbits AND ammo!! I could trade the eggs I did not use for MORE ammo. Ammo, and a LOT of fishing tackle goes a LONG way.

    National Emergency Alert System Set To Launch In NYC

    Never happen. No matter what bad things you could say about Patton, wimp did not apply. If I had to compare Obama to a WWII type it would be Mussolini. A clown, a puppet, arrogant and mean spirited. He and Obama spend a LOT of time looking down their noses as they speak.

    Why is our border so open?

    I got that email from OOIDA as well. I will fire off more stuff to my useless congressman but "Dingellberry" will do nothing. 98% of his funding comes from OUTSIDE the State and District. He provides for those who pay his freight.

    Re: West Coast Runs Reconsidered

    Change is not always easy. It might not only be the prestigious work. I get the same kind of freight that he does. When I have talked with other carriers NONE say that they can keep me at my present income level. Is that true? I have NO idea. I can only go by what they tell me. Competition...

    Why is our border so open?

    Well, cleaning up the mess on our border, closing it as it should be and taking care of "real" reform will NEVER take place as long as Obama/Biden and most of our congress remain in power. THEY are the problem.

    Re: West Coast Runs Reconsidered

    "The best advice I can offer anyone is that with FedEx, it isn't and will never be about you but them and ONLY them." This is likely true of any large carrier, business etc. FDCC being one of those. Everyone should always keep that idea in when working on there business plan.
