I support the truckers 100%. As mentioned, everything you buy was on a big rig at some time, either delivering the materials to the manufacturer or bringing the finished goods to market. I see no reason why diesel should be $4.00 a gallon or gas should be $3.25. I think everyone understands where the truckers are coming from. However, some of them have chosen to drive at very slow speeds, blocking Interstates. This is NOT the way to gain support of the public. Believe me, we didn't want these fuel prices either. We have chosen to stay home most weekends now where we used to go off every weekend. But, of course, truckers' livings come from their wheels turning, so they don't have this option. Anyhow, I am behind you, and support you as well as most other Americans.
