Large and small alike, If you can't afford the system or don't want to be watched by the Iron Fist of the govt. you will not be an interstate carrier. Does anyone remember the airline industry before de-regulation. Controlled routes and prices all set be the government. Sounds crazy now... but by 2015 you will see it. Thanks once again for electing a Marxist leader who is hell-bent on dismantling our Free Market System.
Fatneck, I have no problem with being monitored..If that's what they need to do to think they have me under control,then so be it..I run my run on-time..Never been late in 10 years..I think I have taken 8 or 10 naps since I have been here..I don't make it a habit..And those times,I was sick with a cold ..But I made my run..On-time..

My question is,,What is being questioned? Because Bush went over the Justice Departments head or what..Well..Welcome to the real world..If the Justice Department thought that it was being done illegal, then they should have made their move then..This is nothing but liberal special interest groups wanting to flex their muscles..That's it in a nutshell..And the "U" has become one of the biggest special interest groups there is..Less work--More pay..That's one of the reason's this country is in the shape it's in..Less production...

I think many drivers, me included, support
everyone of the points you mentioned.
I think you are ahead of the curve.
