I’m a grocery trucker. These geniuses have no clue what will happen to this economy if there’s a 10% or even 5% loss of Class A CDL commercial drivers.
Everybody gets focused on the final leg of getting food and products to store shelves. That food has to get from the farm to the processors to the grocery stores’ warehouses first. Every production line of every sort that can’t get raw materials trucked in shuts down in a big hurry. And if those companies can’t get their finished products trucked out to paying customers, the employers have no income to pay their workers.
Pharmaceuticals and medical supplies move by truck. Next time you have a loved one in the hospital, walk around behind the building and look at the very big liquid oxygen tank. The patients who need the help get to keep breathing because a bulk liquid hazmat heavy hauler tops that thing up like clockwork...as long as there are enough of them, that is.
Fuel and building supplies move by truck. The tools, equipment, and materials needed by the people who keep everyday processes running that distinguish first-world life from third-world are supplied by truckers.
We’re already at the point where rising diesel prices and a low-level bidding war for the services of heavy truckers are contributing to the increased costs you are paying right now. Subtracting a significant percentage of drivers from the equation will increase the cost of transportation paid by consumers. Take enough of them out, and the system will just start to break down. A shortage of China-crap Christmas presents won’t be a half-percent of the problems we’ll see if that happens.
Thank you for sharing. It is very helpful.
What about the lack of new drivers after February 2022?
I haven’t heard about a lack of new drivers after February, 2022. If it’s true, we’ll all be paying for it.
I do know that the driver training schools were mostly shut down during the COVID lockdown scare. The community college program here (I used to be an instructor) was operating at half-capacity due to infection prevention protocols for a LONG time after they came back online. Might still be, for all I know.
A new federal mandate is that New drivers must have 40hrs of training in CDL certified schools come February.

Back in the 1980s, I was a Columbia University student learning about a plan to destroy America and end capitalism. It was called Cloward-Piven — named after a Columbia University husband-and-wife professor team. Their insane goal was to turn America into a socialist, communist hellhole.
They planned to do it by overwhelming and collapsing the U.S. economy with massive debt, created by getting as many Americans as possible to depend on welfare, food stamps and unemployment benefits. In the ensuing economic catastrophe and collapse of our country, every business owner would get on their knees to beg government to save them.
At that moment of crisis and chaos, we would become a socialist, communist country.
Don’t look now, but it’s happening. The communists of Columbia (and every other elitist Ivy League school) have tried for decades to force a majority of Americans to rely on welfare benefits. They failed. But they won’t give up. They’ve modified the plan. It’s now a powerful one-two punch.
First, they’ve opened the borders to let millions of migrants and refugees into this country — almost all of whom want cradle-to-grave welfare. Also, don’t forget they all need free health care for themselves and their kids, and their new babies, and their extended families. That alone could overwhelm the system and collapse the economy. That’s before welfare and food stamps. And then there’s free public school for all their children and expensive English-as-a-second-language programs that cost billions of dollars but make teachers unions filthy rich.
Open borders is Cloward-Piven strategy updated for 2021. And as the greatest bonus ever, Democrats know these millions of foreigners will loyally vote for the party who lets them in and then promises to give them the biggest welfare checks. These are lifetime Democrat voters.
But there is now a powerful Part Deux to Cloward-Piven. Democrats aren’t content to just welcome tens of millions of foreign welfare addicts into the USA. They want to make tens of millions of American-born citizens unemployed and dependent on government too.
So, Part Deux of Cloward-Piven is the vaccine mandates.
These COVID-19 vaccine mandates are destroying the country, creating chaos, crisis and division. They are wiping out the ranks of the police, fire, paramedics, nurses, prison guards, border patrol and military. Our middle class is being ripped to shreds. These frontline heroes and defenders don’t want this dangerous, experimental, for-emergency-use-only jab. There will soon be no one to answer your 911 call. The police will be defunded — without voters ever getting a vote.
The military will be left weak and crippled. Wanna bet China is directing this plan? We all know China owns Biden and his family. Biden is serving up the country on a platter to China.
The vaccine mandates also make the supply chain problems much worse. Truck drivers don’t want the jab. They’re quitting in droves. Jet pilots don’t want the jab. They’re on strike now — ask Southwest and American Airlines why thousands of flights were grounded recently. If these pilots are fired, the tourism industry will be devastated. Shipping cargo by air will be devastated. Without pilots and truckers, food and supplies won’t make it to stores. Shelves will be empty — just like the old communist Soviet Union. Coincidence?
Like I said, this is a communist takeover of the USA. Empty shelves are the hallmark of communism.
And then there’s the economy. If vaccine passports are mandated, restaurants, bars, nightclubs and retail stores will be crushed. Doubt me? Scotland’s Hotel Association just announced a 40% drop in business from the vaccine passport. New York City’s restaurants have announced the same size drop in business.
Without the spending of tens of millions of my fellow Americans who choose to be unvaccinated, businesses will close by the millions. The economy will collapse.
This is Cloward-Piven. It’s real. It’s happening. Democrats are purposely destroying and collapsing the economy. They’re defunding the American middle class.
It’s time to fight back HARD. It’s time to stop turning the other cheek. My new bestselling book, “The Great Patriot Protest and Boycott Book,” lays out the only possible strategy for conservative patriots — CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE, the strategy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. We have to hit these socialist, communist traitors and madmen squarely where it hurts — in the pocketbook — with national protests, strikes, boycotts and acts of civil disobedience. We must bankrupt them and bring them to their knees begging for forgiveness. Two can play at this game.
The choice is clear: We either resist, or we lose America, our jobs, our careers, our middle-class quality of life, our health and everything that made America great. It’s time to fight like animals, fight like it’s the end of America, fight like our lives and the lives of our children are at stake ...
Because they are.

Yup! In the spirit of Chris Barrett ceasing sales of the .50 cal rifles to CA. Ask and ye shall receive.
Wow, I.S.! You are a clear thinker and writer!
We’re back to the ‘70s. Only this time life is imitating one of the disaster flicks popular in the ‘70s. The volcano’s going to blow, or there’s a shark eating people, and the powers that be refuse to acknowledge it because they have a political/economic agenda. We’ll call this flick “Mandate!” And the villain is none other than the POTUS, who doesn’t have freckles, a toothy smile, or a southern accent. Instead of an embarrassing brother, he has an embarrassing son, who’s also his bag man.
Messing with truckers is like messing with matches near a pile of dynamite. That’s all that’s got to happen and in the blink of an eye we could have nationwide starvation in a week. All it takes is one announcement, one word of mouth from the net and grocery stores would be emptied in a single day. Allowing Biden to play with this, you might as well put a two year old in the pilots seat of a 747, its insanity
And we’re not even a year into this 4 year fraudshow.
We haven’t seen anything yet
Yep, I say that all the time. No way, NO WAY can we survive this guy for another 3 years. Just imagine the hell that’s going to unleash if we lose the midterms next year because nothing was done about election integrity. The left would go into overdrive and I could very well see us becoming a totalitarian state.
We MUST MUST MUST absolutely sweep the midterms at all costs, and Republicans MUST impeach this damn brain dead mofo ASAP, get him the hell out of office before anymore damage can be done. Anything less is completely unacceptable.
