Well, makes sense I guess. If they force everyone to get coverage, more people will see doctors and more prescriptions will be written. Of course Stabenow hangs it out there like she's sticking up for the little guy--making the evil drug companies pay for it! What a joke--on all of us.

Stabenow said health insurers and drugmakers should pay additional charges because they reap big profits in the current system. When did profit become a dirty word? I thought we were capitalists here!

Greg--my thoughts exactly. Hope someone is keeping inventory on the office equipment!

I'm with ya-- as long as increasing the # of medical professionals doesn't mean lowering standards for med school and passing state boards. Tort reform is probably the biggest item on there.

I've missed a toll going through Chicago. Construction forced traffic over to the Ipass lanes and I couldn't get back over. Knowing there would be many more toll boths, I just asked the operator at the next one and they gave me a slip to mail the payment in. Wasn't a big deal.

Alright, this is an explosive topic, but I'll risk chiming in. I have come to accept that abortions are going to happen everyday in this country. What I strongly disagree with is paying taxes to support something against my religious convictions. Call me unamerican, but I put GOD before...

I think they're just going off of size--(revenue or fleet) not quality.

I think of the Soapbox as being like the argument sketch from Monty Python.

Just as info: Transport Topics has their list of the top 100 largest for hire carriers out. Here are some expediters from that list: 2009 rank vs 2008 rank Fedex now 2 was 2 Ceva Ground now 11 was 17 Transforce now 15 was 16 Dynamex now 70 was 60...

Even though some of his stuff was out in left field, much of it was funny. The forum is alot more interesting with him posting.

I'll second the vote for Cherry Garcia that or Ryba's Mackinaw Island Fudge

He certainly does have the right to fight the ticket, but just because you can do something doesn't mean you should. By all accounts it looks like it was his fault. In the world we live in today, I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a book deal.

Some people have nerve......he's lucky they aren't going after him for the bridge damages. Delores Flynn / The Detroit News Hazel Park -- The Clawson man who was issued a speeding ticket in the fiery crash on northbound I-75 near Nine Mile earlier this month has decided to contest it in...

NLM is National Logistics Management and PTM is Premium Transportation Management (Active Aero). Both are bid boards that carriers go to for expedite loads---tend to be lower pay because it is a competitive bid enviornment.

How about some parameters for bills? One topic, one initiative....one bill. Enough adding line items for things that have nothing to do with the issue at hand (a.k.a. pork). If something can't stand up to the vote on its own without greasing wheels, too bad. Not defending his statement...

I know that they are part of the expedite alliance and that they bid on PTM and NLM moves. They've been around a while, but beyond that nothing to say one way or the other about them.

The autobahn as well as the surface streets there are all in immaculate shape compared to what we have here in Detroit. I think some of our roads haven't been repaired since WWII.

Plenty more folks would move if they had any kind of hope of being able to sell their house. The Free Press had an article about the murder rate in Detroit. More murders here than in NYC---and NYC has at least 8 times more people.
