Money talks...Bul$$hit walks...Another way for the low wage mexican to make a living in this country.

Why low wage. Because we put up with it. Then what oh sorry Don we are only starting drivers at 27cpm. Yes but I have 10 years experience. Well Don that really doesnt matter anymore.

How many smart mexicans we got in the country?

I say Boston Tea party.. but apply to govt with all this NAFTA.. Mexican immigration crap they are pulling.

When will we stand up and quit tolerating this crap. Yes america was founded on immigration but at least our great ancestors had the balls to stand up when stuff was not right.


again my 2 cents

The best thing you can do is email your congressman and voice your opinion. I know I did. We need to as many truckdrivers to do this instead of talking or complaining about it. You can go to the Truckboards website to do this.

You just don't get it.

And until it starts to affect your paycheck, you never will.

And I'm not going to waste my time trying to explain it to people who think like you do.

Good luck with your future.
The question wasn't about wages... it was about the economy. If somehow isntantly the shipping costs practically dissappeared, why and how would it wreck the economy?

I'm guessing on the internet. And you insulted my intelligence. :roll:

Hint: type in "Truckboards" and maybe you'll find it.

I have changed my mind about having the Mexicans come here.

Welcome, my Mexican brothers.
