Truckers are going Galt. They intend to shutdown Washington D.C. We can all participate in the national strike by several means.

- 2Posted by $ rockymountainpirate 13 years agoOwner/operators only make money when that truck is rolling with a load. There is a concerted effort to put the owner/operator and small trucking firms out of business, so I'm surprised the strike wouldn't be about that rather than Benghazi. I'll call my trucker friend in a while and see if he even knows about this. I'll report back later.| Permalink

- 1Posted by ObjectiveAnalyst 13 years ago in reply to this comment.I would appreciate the feedback. My brother in law is a driver, but not an owner/operator, so I don't think his boss would appreciate an unscheduled road trip to Washington with his truck...| Permalink
