    1. Just a suggestion if all truckers parked their trucks for a week or more. You can bet that the price will drop big time. We have to take a stand. Or it's gonna get ugly.

    2. A single freight train can deliver as much cargo as 300 semi-trailer trucks, with fuel anywhere from 1.5x to 10x better. If we're going to burn diesel at all, it should be in trains.

    3. Well the truckers can't move loads at a loss so the end price of goods will have to rise in order to compensate them sufficiently. This is inflation at it's most explainable.

    4. It's not because people are shopping….it's because that perv that cheated his way onto Pennsylvania Ave shut down our pipeline, and does NOT have America's best interest at heart. But then, he has no heart.

    5. "Build back better" and any other democratic Bill or agenda is always a misnomer.
      mis·no·mer
      /misˈnōmər/

      A wrong or inaccurate name or designation.
      "morning sickness is a misnomer for many women, since the nausea can occur any time during the day"
      a wrong or inaccurate use of a name or term.

    6. Stop blaming the war in Ukraine. This has everything to do with the biden administration and their war on fossil fuels. From day one he has fkd us at the pump. Just like everything thing else in our economy . He claims to be president, the buck stops with him. No more excuses.

    7. I was forced to give up riding my own horse. Thanks to Joe's decision..no Republicans or Democrats care. I work for a small company now. I make great money and run like a beast.

    8. And the truckers want to start their bs again by parading around DC. I'll gladly pay the extra cuz I'm smart enough to make up for it. Price gouging has always been going on. This is a mere infraction compared to roe v wade or voting rights. Let's work on those issues.
