Load rates!!

{"text":"What the hell is going on with load rates? Why do load rates continue to drop? We are in the only industry that prices go down for us but maintenance costs and everything else continue to rise. In the last 5 years trucking rates have remained flat or in some instances have declined! Why are people taking loads called backhauls at reduced rates? I may have to change my career but I dont want to start all over from scratch. ","videos":"[]","link":"{}","pics":"[]","canComment":true}

625878 发表于 2019-09-13 01:48:25 I just finished reading up on Andrew Yang,\n\nHere is his talking points.\n\n1) $1000.00 given to everyone every month to help with the cost of living. (Who is paying for this? Oh yea big technology companies.)\nWell have any of you crazy leftist’s done the math on that?\nThere is 360,000,000 million people in the USA.\nSo that is $360,000,000,000.00 per month.\nNow multiply that number by 12 months = \n$4,320,000,000,000.00\nThat is 1/4 of the national debt right now.\n\nSo just in one year he will increase the national debt by an extra 28%.\n\n2) he wants to have government paid health care system like Canada and Sweden.\n\nThat is another 8.6 trillion to the national debt.\n\nThere is even more. He wants to join the climate change tunnel, and shut down oil, shut down the dams / hydroelectric. And so on and so on. \n\nJust the two mentioned above increases the debt by 13 trillion dollars.\n\nWe are in debt right now at a whopping 22 trillion dollars \n\nSo just with the two policies we would instantly be at 34 trillion dollars. This is just in the first year.\n\nThis is what 22 trillion dollars and 43 trillion dollars actually looks like, maybe some of you leftist people can understand the actual number.\n\n$22,000,000,000,000.00\nOr\n$34,000,000,000,000.00
