No truck drivers equals complete shutdown of our economy. I guess the Emperor Biden will not be happy until he has another Great Depression. Only this time it was self inflicted.

Its already bad and now its going to be worse. My advice stock up now before the start of the year or suffer miserably.

I feel this issue daily. As I move chemicals around from blending facilities to production sites of my customers, not only do we deal with shortages of raw materials, but we also deal with the lack of drivers to move product from manufacture to customer site. Just today, I had a critical chemistry placed on a railcar in the Chicago railyard for future transport to a customer site that was originally promised the chemistry by COB today. This action shuts my customer down when they cannot produce enough product to meet current demand. Not good for anyone.

Why in the hell would a bulk or LTL trucker, with minimal contact with people in their daily job functions, be subjected to mandates on vaccines for a virus that kills just a few? I might be convinced on the need for schools and people in close proximity, but when I see NFL and MLB stadiums full of unmasked people, I have to question the "why". Stupid policy for a stupid country led by a stupid President that sharts himself. F u Brandon.

All according to their master plan.

I never thought that. Its gonna get a lot worse.

Yes it is going to get a lot worse. Unemployment will soar.

Add to this that truckers have associations and a lot more than just the unvaccinated will walk off. You can guarantee yourself you will lose half of the current truck drivers come January 4.

Now even off loaded containers will have no way to get to customers. And Democrats think their leadership is best for Americans.

I sure glad we decided to offshore all manufacturing now makes us look real smart. But, hey we got that cheap labor.

The Chinese plan is being completed by the Manchurian candidate.

Congratulations to Biden and his clown show actually have done something the union couldn't accomplish. Get a large number of truckers to unite.

Asking why is rhetorical. It's about Spongebrain Sh*tpants' handlers and their desire to see just how far they can push and control Americans for their own profit. Him forcing millions of people to get the quacksine that doesn't stop the Wuhan flu or even slow its spread is illustrated by the fact that he is pushing it on everyone he can that is a productive (non-productive members are still free and clear) member of society.

I can do my job fully remote. Now, my corporate overlords insist I show up in an office (the latest bs reason being is to make friends with my co-workers), but I can do my job without any physical interaction with any other employees. Why, then, am I being told I must get the quacksine or be subject to weekly tests? And there are many more like me that COULD work on an entirely remote basis but are still being forced to get this drug cocktail and are being forced to sit in an office for no logical reason at all.

Low number of 37% to a high number of 49% of truckers staying at home won't effect the supply chain?

I believe what she meant was this-- We've already done everything we can to completely crash the supply chain. If this all the damage we could possibly do to it, its more resilient than we thought, so throwing more at it can't make it worse.

All of the above...with poor grammar and a less than stellar command of the English language.

And wtf happened to her hair. She must know she is on tv.

That's all you need to know about what is going to happen.

I’ve been feeling this for most of the year. Own an epoxy flooring company and my suppliers are constantly running out of raw material. My prices have gone up 60-80% this year depending on the product.

When AT&T recalled me to an office after 10 years of working from home was the beginning of the end. It was THE single biggest perk I had. I lasted another two years and as I retired I burned every bridge I could. I literally told my new boss to go eff himself, hung up, called HR and started the process to retire. Obnoxious yankee that he was he called me back within the hour and asked what I had said as I hung up on him. I responded with get that dik out of your ear and you could hear me, go eff yourself. I quit.

Edit: Oh, why I even mention it is because they used the same reason, I needed to collaborate with my co-workers. At the time my office was in a central office with two other people, one of whom worked nights. Neither one was even in my division, they had nothing whatsoever to do with my side of the business.

Eff corporate America, they're a huge part of what's wrong. It's not capitalism that is hurting us, it's consumerism.

What is absolutely depressing to me is the fact these people can look us in the face and lie in completely absurd ways and a lot of the citizens believe them. What the hell is wrong with people?
