It would make sense to relieve the regulatory burden on our trucks if they are expected to compete with Mexico’s largely unregulated trucking industry.
This is one of the problems with “free trade” as it is currently practiced, we still have very old laws regulating our industries, and our competition does not face that same barrier to entry into our markets.

The third world worker lives here:
and commutes to work on this:
The American worker lives here:
and commutes to work in this:
...so when someone tells you that all we have to do to become competitive is to deregulate industry, don't believe it. Your kids will have to adopt a standard of living far different - and far inferior - to your own.
