THE POWER OF TRUCK DRIVERS

We as a group have more power than we will ever realize,but we choose to stand individuality why is that?As a group we have the power to shut down the North American economy for you saying that would be impossible,well look at how the the NORTH AMERICAN ECONOMY works just in time delivery truck drivers deliver raw products,finished products and everything in between!At one time every city and town had a railroad line running into it but with cheaper truck transportation most of these rail lines have be ripped up,so consumers can no longer just go down to the local rail station and pick their goods up.Laws have been passed making it illegal for drivers to actively block highways or strike,but if we all simply booked holidays or phoned in sick for four consecutive days everything in North America would grind to a halt.The high and overpaid autoworkers would be sent home due to parts shortages,the general public would run to the grocery and gas stations in an effort to hoard food and fuel resulting in shortages.People say well not everybody would join in well if there is no fuel deliveries sooner or later those that chose to keep running would be forced to shut down !Have we not taken enough abuse yet we run when were sick,were underpaid look at most autoworkers 30 to 40 bucks an hour if you figure in benefits yet we are the ones that keep the economy rolling.In most states and provinces we are not entitled to overtime until after 60 hours why is that are we different,yes we are we work for trucking companies WHO claim undue hardship at every burp in the road.For the billie bigriggers out there saying I'M MAKIN GOOD MONEY LOOK AT THE HOURS YOU SPEND IN THAT TRUCK AND LOOK AT YOUR TAKEHOME YOUR NOT GETTIN A FAIR RETURN FOR HOURS INVESTED AND MONEY TAKEN HOME !!!!!!!

407 E.T.R.

An update to earlier posts on the Electronic Theft Road just spoke to a service represenative from the Theft Road over a bill I just received I asked if I could receive the image of the plate that is alleged to have been used to travel the 407!GUESS WHAT THEY CAN'T PRODUCE THAT IMAGE"SURPRISE SURPRISE"WOULD THAT NOT BE LIKE A CREDIT CARD COMPANY DEMANDING PAYMENT FOR AN ALLEGED BILL AND NOT BEING ABLE TO PRODUCE SOME FORM OF PROOF YOU ACTUALY OWE THAT BILL?How many people just pay these bills to escape the harrassment of the 407,when the bill is not even theirs to begin with?One would be better off to let the 407 or their merry band of collection agencies(NOR-DON INCLUDED)to take them to small claims court and produce their proof you actualy used their highway.PRODUCE THE IMAGE OF THE PLATE # OR SHUT UP!WE CAN ALL THANK MIKE HARRIS AND THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY FOR THIS FIASCO.AND IF ONE LOOKS AT THE FRONT ROW OF STEPHEN HARPERS CAUCUS WE STILL HAVE ABOUT FOUR OF THEM STILL

IGNORANCE OF THE LAW

From an early age we are taught to listen to people of authority our parents teachers etc they know best in the younger years this is good advice.But as we age we should be wary of this line of thought.Some police officers will give you that age old line IGNORANCE OF THE LAW IS NO EXCUSE FOR BREAKING IT!But deep down he or she are praying you are ignorant of the law,case in point that traffic ticket he or she is writing you if you are ignorant of the law they are hoping you will just pay it.Traffic tickets are a cash cow for law enforcement and in other instances a way to go fishing for information like WHERE ARE YOU GOING OR COMING FROM it is none of their business where you have been or going,Ride checks have you ever been asked those same questions at a ride check again none of their business.In fact the SUPREME COURT has ruled once it has been identified as a ride check it is not authorizing an open invitation for fishing expedition of information.Should be have you been drinking t
