I HOPE THAT THE STRIKE WILL OPEN THE EYES OF PEOPLE. WE PAY MORE AT THE STORES FOR THE PRODUCTS THAT THEY SHIP YET THE TRUCKERS SEE NONE OF THAT IN RETURN. I SAY LOWER THE PRICE OF DIESEL OR RAISE THE RATES FOR THE TRUCKERS, WITHOUT THEM AMERICA WILL SHUT DOWN.

I hope the whole nation strikes due to the fuel prices this nations government should have a taste of what the fuel prices is causing to the truckers in this country. A strike across the nation will cause an over flow in the fuel and will drop the cost of fuel, I think that truckers should strike for atleast 24 hours and just shut down all the transportation opperations in this country and delay all shipments

Anyone looking for information about the nationwide protests or how you can help the truckers lower the fuel prices for ALL OF US lots of great info, news stories and clips of protests at www.theamericandriver.com This is not just about fuel prices. It is driving the prices of other petroleum products up like fertilizer for the farmers, heating oil for our homes and the prices of everything that has to get to a store so we can buy it. Stand up with the drivers and make a difference before we all go broke!

Drivers, let's all get coordinated and make the biggest noise we can! They're starting to listen. Keep it up and a big thanks from me. I'm doing all I can to help you guys out.
