So. This is basically “Hey guys we screwed it up. You fix it” ? Just without admitting fault. Gotcha.

I chuckled at first.   Then read his statement or possibly order that private enterprise needs to step it up.   I just shook my head in disbelief.

Fuck Brandon, we had so many truckers getting fucked with in Cali we now mostly fly our inventory over when it isn’t coming into Houston or Savannah.  Charter costs are about $1.95MM per week.  Biologics, tests, manufacturing equipment, etc

Will account for approximately $.50 cents per test. The cost of manufacturing and assembling the rapid tests about $.64 per.

The supply chain for everything fucking sucks and it’s a public/private fucking of epic proportions incentivized by bad trade and monetary policy.  Try to get rotors from Ford for a Superduty or parts for a fucking chainsaw.

It's not just federal government. California passed a law AB5 that basically outlawed many forms of self-employment, including owner-operators of freight trucks.

They did that in the state with our largest port LA, where a majority of the truckers taking cargo off the ships are owner-operators.

The Democrats are such idiots. I mean, they are cunning in seizing power and using the power of the state to perpetuate their criminal organization's political power. But they are idiots in that they don't understand how their policies designed to help and enrich their patrons like unions in the AB5 law wreak complete havoc across the economy and society.

The fix is going to cause inflation and will not fix the problem completely. This is intentional as they can then claim it to all be private businesses fault. It's a win win for the government and a lose lose for the people.

FJB is your typical Democrat - creating all sorts of problems and then demanding that others fix HIS mistakes.  Problem for Xiden is how is he going unfuck his fucking mess.   As far as I am concerned, he can demand all he wants.  That's a good way of pissing off the rank-and-file union members that voted for him because their bosses told them that Xiden would be their best choice.  With any luck, he will drag the union bosses down with him as he crashes.

How about you reverse the rule that makes trucks shit where they eat, and get rid of all the sensors that de-rate them, so they are not in the shop for over 3 months.

Then stuff might start moving.

DPF filters, DEF, emissions.  Basically the EPA have neutered  the trucking industry.  

In other words trucks are in the shop, there are no parts for the stupid shit that doesn't need to even be on a truck.

Then there is the DOT that demanded e-logs that forced alot of truckers to up and quit.

Plus fuel is ridiculous and freight rates haven't adjusted to that.

I'm not a driver either just in an industry that relies on it.

Edited spelling

Emissions systems have been in place for several years - and yes, it absolutely contributes to down time but I really don't think that's the major cause of the current situation.

We're beginning to see DEF and DPF's on off road industrial equipment now. Boom lifts, Telehandlers, etc.

There is no use for a tier 4+ diesel in an industrial application.  It's a needless complication.

One of my regulars made the mistake of buying a Mitsi forklift with a Tier 4 Perkins in it, the thing was a constant headache.  
Never got ran long enough to clear the DPF, so we replaced two of them to the tune of 3500.00+ labor.  It would try to go into a regen cycle, but because the environment it works in is so filthy, the operators could not see the indicator and would shut it off.
Eventually the cost of replacing DPF's convinced the management to sideline the fucking thing.
Now it sits in the equivalent of a junkyard, because some fuckwit thought an intermittently used diesel forklift was polluting too much.
I don't blame Perkins, or Mistibushi. I blame the fucking idiots in Congress who let garbage legislation go through that cripples this country's logistics.
Fuck the EPA.

Lower gas prices?  Easy.
 
Step 1:  Remove the taxes on gasoline and diesel. The .gov takes in more per gallon than the oil companies make in profit.  
Step 2:  Get rid of the brainless Biden policies on drilling and oil and gas leases.
Step 3:  Re-start the Keystone XL pipeline.

Do that and gas prices will be under a buck a gallon in a few months.
