If you go listen to some of these spaces, @lostisreed or @lets_truck you'll realize FAST how broker's get away with it! They're literally laughing in trucker's faces. They've even got people they call resident trucker experts, yet cannot correctly answer trucker questions?

@thehill It should NEVER be about leverage! No wonder our nation is in this current situation. Leverage. Leverage? Maybe he should step down. You don't help people by leveraging, hello!!

@truckerpatty Nobody has a board nor anything similar to put under the tires? Nobody has a pull chain? Nothing? It's sad what our industry has turned into anymore!

Believing the G will step in to help the workers, is a pipe dream. The classification standards already exist. They're not taking action now, but you believe they will with new labor classification laws? Outlaw companies will always exist. What's to stop them? Pro Act? 😆.

@FR8Professor Why aren't you saying more brokers need to exit the business, like you guys have repeatedly said about trucker's and motor carriers? Aren't broker's over capacity? Just wondering.

It's already starting, told ya. Do not remove the ability of people in the USA to be in business, nor remove their way of earning. This is not a smart thing to do.

Tonyo states : OMG I’m getting so tired of seeing “Earn Up To 70 CPM” just make it 70 CPM period! I’ve been seeing companies paying 55 CPM since 2005. Why the hell are they still trying to pay us that? Just years & years of ripping Drivers off.

Question. How are you a voting rights advocate, but you scream for no ID required? I have to show ID to haul freight, but not to vote? I have to show ID to get an alcoholic beverage, but not to vote? I have to show ID to process a check, but not to vote? Such nonsense, honestly.

@MWPexplains @ErikSherman Ludicrous and laughable. A business owner needs union protections? I guess we won't need business lawyers now, either?
