Ah....Mr President...are these jobs that Americans are not willing to do??????????????????????????? Are you kidding me???????????????

See folks before the Mexicans dropped the loads to the American Drivers... at the border....but now that want to drive these loads all the way to the vendor ...like Wal-fart etc...see they will run for 13-14 cents a mile while the American driver with their many rules and much training get 29-40cents...which has dropped because the health insurance is now four times more...so you see the Companies love these guys..cuz they come cheap for now...but soon the will DEMAND...after the American drivers have been destroyed
My son, who drives a truck, would be very surprised that this is a job he doesn't really want to/won't do! The kids runs his truck all the time. He's one of the hardest workers I've ever known...besides his mama!

I hope the American truckers block the border!!!
