    Another small government proponent wondering why the government hasn’t fixed the supply chain.

    It's the government's policies that have made it this way. So once again, are you lying or just a moron?

    What do you think these actions by the state government in California have done to the trucking industry Dazzler?

    Speaking in terms of California’s adversarial and tumultuous relationship with the trucking industry, consider the following: California promulgated a diesel engine rule that took out of service some $20 billion dollars of diesel equipment, including trucks, farm and construction equipment, by way of air quality rule that was steeped in academic and regulatory corruption. The rule required multiple replacements and modifications of engines that were too expensive for most owner operators, and mom and pop companies, to comply with. Most of this equipment has never been replaced.

    Then, there is Assembly Bill 5 by Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez (D-San Diego), currently tied up in the courts, as it affects the trucking industry. AB5 would serve to eliminate owner-operators and contract drivers from operating in the state of CA. On top of that, Gov. Gavin Newsom has declared no diesel trucks will be allowed to be sold or operated in this state within the next two decades. And, let us not forget, both Newsom and Biden are waging a war against the oil industry which is driving up fuel prices across the board.

    Look for Dazzler to now run and hide like a Kunt from this thread. A post about Amorosa should be up on the board shortly.

    Rep. Matt Rosendale, R-Mont., told Newsmax that empty shelves across the country due to the supply chain shortage is making the U.S. look a lot like Russia.

    ''If you would watch the newsreels now, you would think that you were watching something out of Russia from about 20 or 30 years ago, with bare shelves and supply chains being shut down,'' Rosendale said Wednesday on ''The Chris Salcedo Show.''

    ''The administration is already warning people that if they want to have presents under the Christmas tree this year, they need to start ordering them now. The problem is, you can't get them, and if you can, they're probably about 30-50% more expensive than they were this exact time last year.''

    As hundreds of cargo ships continue circling U.S. ports looking for a slip to dock and unload, an estimated $106,400,000,000 in freight remains in limbo, according to Forbes.



    That's my favorite line when shopping with the wife

    This sounds like something some bike lanes in South Bend could fix

    Biden was on the fake news today blaming the "private sector".

    That must be what hh is parroting.

    How predictable was it that the Dazzler would run and hide like a Kunt from this thread.
