Stop giving every dipshit with a pulse a CDL and the keys to a big rig.

Then the demand and comp for qualified drivers will go up. Safety will improve too.

Yes. Sorry to tell him, but a shitty job does not equal slavery. It’s just a shitty job. Do something else.

If no one will do the job maybe the pay will improve.

“Modern day slave” is open for a lot of interpretation.

Predatory lease agreements = 18th century shackles.

It’s just a figure of speech.

All we have now are foreigners that have gone thru minimal driver training and can’t read English.

Your pivot to meaningless Leftist word salad is noted.

If youre a female progressive.

Thats exactly how they look at every topic, which means there is never an objective truth.

Its a job that requires more skill and knowledge than most in its payrange. Seems like better training should be pushed.

While my sample is a bit small I stop at medium sized truck stop (say 50% larger lot than the Loves in Port Allen) at the interstate exit near my house and the guys I see walking to and from the fuel rack and in and out of the lounge/showers pretty much look like the same demographic of baws I have seen driving trucks my whole life.

Correct. Unless you're on the west coast, because you'll see a lot of Sikh's, who aren't foreigners, typically, and can read English.
