    Idiot!!

    This hostility to trucks certainly doesnt need any help from State legislators. The unfortunate result of these poorly-thought-out laws results in municipalities reducing weight limits simply to get more money-thereby making it impossible for local business to get deliveries. This kind of legislation hurts local business-and provides revenue for local municipalities by imposing fines on unsuspecting truckers for using non- or poorly-marked low-weight limit streets. Who do you think absorbs the cost of these regulations? Businesses, the already low-paid trucker and ultimately the consumer.

    We Need To Wake Up The Ignorant Sheep

    in this state. 99% of the new laws these idiots try to pass are just new revenue generators. Unfortunatly the public schools have taught these people that you can punish all these "evil rich" folks and they will just pay the bill. Wake Up People! The only ones that pay are the end users. If you put so called windfall profits tax on the evil oit companies because they made 8% on their money last year, they raise the price of gas. Duh. Who Pays? If you guessed the guy at the pump then you can move to the head of the class. An ignorant electorate is real easy to lead around by the nose as we have seen in this election last week.
