  • @apha87 Have you ever heard of hemp bio diesel? The oil from hemp seed is the most economical out of all plants for bio diesel! Ron Paul 2012!! End the wars on drugs! End the welfare state!

  • @darriusrboyd08 not anymore

  • Its time for the following solutions

    1) Impose a price ceiling on all diesel fuel

    2) eliminate any diesel excise tax

    3) use coloured (tax free) diesel

  • You see Truckers in USA do not have a UNION of truckers , so this is how goverment can fuck them up. in Europe Truckers have UNION and when they strike eveyone feels it ... and action is taken ...

    in USA only few truck are on strike while others shut up and drive. and WORK for food.

  • Truck drivers should advocate governments to impose price ceilings on diesel say $3 per gallon which is a reasonable price.

  • gas is 1.89 in detroit mi

  • push the blue.

  • it's based on per mile rate.

  • people dont realize how much its hurtin the wallets of truckers. my hole family are truckers and some of them had to park their rigs and start drivin for a company or find different jobs because they cant afford it...something needs to happen NOW!!!!

  • uh yes where did you learn math? they drive across the country and back in one day and that is about 1600miles one day
