    It is Official....Bachmann for President...

    What game? I am going to take my granddaughter to the sand dunes and fishing and what ever else I can think of. Anti-Christ? Nope, Obama is just one of Satan's lower minions.

    Blagovejich guilty of all charges

    IF I had the resources and time I would. I have no love for any political machine regardless of party. Neither are honest, neither has the best interest of the nation in the forefront. They are only out for THEIR power and glory. Do I believe Obama is as crooked as a mountain road? You betcha...

    The Sinking Of The Titantic - FDCC

    Yes, there are many trucks that do not do Canada or have limiters. It strikes me as strange. We were told that we would not be allowed to remain as a WG truck if we choose not to speed limit. I wonder if we will see that same sort of thing with reefers that meet or don't meet California...

    Blagovejich guilty of all charges

    It would not surprise me if Obama was involved. It is Chicago and it is the Dumb-O-Crats.

    I would without a doubt work to repeal the 16th and the 17th as well. Any government that feels it has a "right" to others wages is oppressive. We need a congress with some stones and a president who is not owned. It may be too late.

    It is Official....Bachmann for President...

    You are SO sure of that. I hope I am more right than you. I am willing to think out of the box. I am NOT looking at a ReBumLiCan OR a Dumb-O-Crat. I am NOT looking at a person who has ever held public elected office. A person who is NOT a party hack. Educated, accomplished, experienced and...

    Elderly woman asked to remove adult diaper during TSA search

    It appears that you might have not ever been to the York County, PA firefighter convention and parade. They have a bunch of volunteer firefighters known as the "Fire Babies" who ride tricycles, pedal type, in diapers with firefighters suspenders in the parade. They do this to raise money for...

    More from Mr. Wallace's Sunday show.....

    What subsidies? You mean a lower tax? That is NOT a subsidy. The government is NOT entitled to any companies OR private citizens earnings. It is NOT the governments money. Lower ALL taxes EXCEPT on those who pay none and insure that THEY pay THEIR share. They are the drain on the rest of us.

    Blagovejich guilty of all charges

    I would LOVE to see another, MUCH WIDER, investigation into this to see who else is involved. Just one in Chicago is not enough. I would look a LOT higher up the Dumb-O-Crat food chain in Chicago for others.

    The International Council of Manlaws, Ltd.

    I should make up my OWN "manlaws" They would be GOOD. No "city slickers" or "metrosexuals" would EVER follow them. Only REAL men who know what a "hunker" is would even read them! LOL!! :p

    The Sinking Of The Titantic - FDCC

    All part of the "Grand Plan" to move the US to "second" or even "third" world status. We will lose most of the middle class, have a tiny, elite "upper class" and the rest will be serfs or worker bees.

    The Sinking Of The Titantic - FDCC

    It is not only FDCC. I think you are going to see the downward pressure on rates industry wide. IF Mexico gets it's way, and I see little reason why they won't, they are, sooner or later, going to be allowed to work interstate freight as well as the international freight. Then we will all be...

    Sounds like "manlaws" for "city slickers" to me. Should have started with a "hunker". :p

    Re: Going Broke

    You don't pay attention to the pay breakdowns? :confused:

    Re: Going Broke

    Let's try it this way: The higher the percentage of the total pay of a load is in FSC the lower the profit a truck makes on that load. I don't turn down loads due to FSC, BUT, without a doubt, the higher the percentage of that pay is in FSC the less we end up with, therefor, we are working...

    I don't think many understand what I am getting at. I must not be explaining it well.

    Re: Going Broke

    What ever you wish to think is ok by me. It matters to me. I watch what I EARN, you know, keep. Gross is not as important as net. If the "rate" is mainly going in the tanks I am NOT keeping as much. IF the rate per mile remains static with a rising FSC what the truck is being paid to haul...

    Re: Going Broke

    Look at the REAL rate on loads, remove tolls, FSC etc etc etc. How has that rate been holding? Going up? Down? Staying level? IF there was, say a $2 per mile average last year, and still $2 per mile earlier this year when fuel was way up, that base rate went down. Only the FSC made it up. That...

    Re: Going Broke

    I thought I said that this had nothing to do with any individual truck, team or carrier. I don't believe that I was even implying that this had a thing to do with you or you truck. I am very sorry if you took it that way. I can assure you that it was NOT meant that way.
