Do any of you work in the trucking industry?

Actually, "free market" is a myth. I'm glad you're reading it though. It's a long read because it's in four different parts.

I am on 1/8 of part two.

Í Work a an owner operator truck driver in the oil fields in The Permian Basin area, work is constant and the pay is around 5k a week average after all deductions.
Not too shabby..

The farming industry is being decimated as well. With the Bayer-Monsanto merger, family farms will be a thing of the past. You don't even have to worry about trade tariffs ruining American farming because monopolies will beat them to the punch.

Farmers also have a crazy high suicide rate.

Eurofarmers are reaping what they've sowed

I'm a driver and get payed great money, more than enough to support myself and if I had a family I'd be able to support them too. I work for a large company that has a fleet of trucks they own, I haven't met many drivers who own their own truck. It's a good job that pays extremely well considering the amount of training it requires.. I'm not really sure what you're on about

It's just those short haulage guys at the port in Cali who got screwed by some unscrupulous trucking companies out there. Like I said Jamaicans who are in trucking up there make great money.
