New York City's Nightmare

New York City's Nightmare Under Communist Mayor De Blasio
By Franke Schein
January 9th 2015


BILL DE BLASIO - NYC PROGRESSIVE MAYOR
New York City's 109th Mayor is truly one of a kind administrator. His public polices  are aimed at destroying the middle-class workers who keep the public treasury flowing with countless billions of taxes, as well as increased fines, violations, and petty permit fees.

But on the other hand, his policies are not only beneficial to himself, but to the millions of illegal and generations of welfare families who voted for him.

He is the first democrat to hold the city's highest office since 1993. One of his first acts in office was to change the manner in which the New York Police Department deals with blacks and Latino.

He ran for mayor by promising the black and Latino communities that he would do away with the STOP & FRISK policies that has been the leading crime deterrent in NYC for years. A move that resulted in across the board dissension between De Blasio's and the NYPD, who felt that the mayors actions are disrespectful to them.

But what could New Yorkers expect from a mayor who is openly sympathetic to socialism, if not outright communism...?

Considering De Blasio's track record of over-taxing New York City's working families, and giving it to the subsistence families, it shouldn't come as a surprise where he is taking New York City.

His public polices regarding education can be witnessed in his September 2013 opposition to the city's 183 Charter (Private) Schools. Opting instead to reduce the city's co-funding of these schools--even though 20,000 New Yorkers staged a rally against this policy. He revoked $200 Million from the city's Charter School budget; Yet, at the same time, he wants to tax those families earning over $500,000 a year to pay for kindergarten after-school program which are largely dominated by the Latino families, many of whom are receiving welfare.




Just like his Democratic Socialist mentor in The Whitehouse, De Blasio's Fas tracked illegal citizenship in New York City through an unconstitutional act which provided illegal's with a city issued identification card.

This policy created an immediate overload of NYC's welfare and subsistence rolls, and had resulted in overall budgetary spending at the cost of working New Yorkers who foot this illegal scheme.

Additionally, the city's school districts were inundated with a mass influx of illegal's registering their children for after-school programs; many of which are prioritized, and provided almost exclusively for the Latino students, leaving many non-Latino's out of the programs.

Another immediate effect of De Blasio's educational policies can be seen in the lack of student seating throughout the districts. Due to these programs, the schools don't have enough seating space for longtime residents, because the Illegals outnumber the registered students. In some cases, lack of seating space has forced the school districts to bus students to different schools.

Illegals given a city identification card, as well as legal status, has combined to create a predominantly disproportionate number of educational opportunities for New York City's residents. A simple divide and conquer approach to administrating the city's population.

DE BLASIO ADMITS HE'S A SOCIALIST:

During De Blasio's inauguration speech, he openly states that he is a Democratic Socialist. Use of the words like "Progressive" can be linked to the communist ideologies common in The Soviet Union and Peoples Democratic Republic Of China.

“Make no mistake: The people of this city have chosen a progressive path, and tonight we set forth on it, together."

He goes on to state a very common socialistic view, that wealthy New Yorkers should pay more taxes to support the city's illegals, and fund his "No Child Left Behind" policies.


OF COURSE MOST PEOPLE ARE JUDGED BY THE COMPANY THAT THEY KEEP; ALLOW THE PICTURES BELOW TO RESONATE IN YOUR MIND TO UNDERSTAND THIS PROGRESSIVE LIBERALIZED SOCIALIST MAYOR OF NEW YORK CITY

The Democratic Socialsits Party (Progressive Agenda)

The Democratic Socialists Party
By Franke Schein
January 5th 2015


THE DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST PARTY
The democratic socialists party leadership is comprised primarily of middle age blacks who have been given a taste of power, and they have become drunken with it to the point of uncontrollable addiction.

Their ultimate goal is to elevate themselves to a position of authority which guarantees unlimited wealth, and absolute power without public oversight.

Their agenda removes all forms of resistance and recourse from those who willingly, or unwillingly serve the system. A system that perpetuates servitude from cradle to grave, with dire consequences for those who contradict the established absolutism.

Their closed door legislation includes the covert manipulation of education, healthcare, finance, immigration, judicial processes, manufacturing, communications, and essential consumer commodities. In essence and form, they seize every opportunity to utilize taxation as a means to force compliance until abject control is established, and all civil liberties are a mere shadow of a long forgotten history.

At no time in America's history has this group ever conducted themselves in a manner beneficial to anyone other than themselves. For they see themselves as having been victimized by an unjust system, in the exact same manner in which they seek to victimized others once they gain power.

One can see evidence of this in every democratic controlled city or state. The maddening profusion of inane laws designed to inhibit speech, restrain action or complaint, and the incremental elimination of civil rights through brutal police state tactics.

Utilizing race, and money, they create a climate of racial disparity in order to ferment controlled chaos within the sphere of their influence. By pitting race against race, they mastermind the actions and thoughts of those who are undereducated and unemployed, against those who are employed and sustain their own lives financially.

They speak of capitalism in derogatory terms, disparaging those corporations that bring a measure of consistency to the kitchen table; when in essence it's these same corporations that they want to control through heavy revenue generating taxation, and useless legislation.

At the forefront of their self indulgent policies, they work diligently to abolish all forms of western religion. They view GOD and those who follow Jesus teachings as a detriment to their personal agenda. Using federal laws and media propaganda, they routinely harass and intimidate churches, clergy, and church members; calling instead for a new age type of spirituality which allows deviant peculiarities, and oftentimes outright contempt for established religiosities. By eliminating religious morality, they foster a sense of righteous acceptance to their godless immorality, and further truncate the system of reliance by those that have been indoctrinated.

Historically it has always been the elimination of privately owned firearms that has allowed these closet tyrants to succeed in their sinister plans. It isn't the removal of firearms that they are seeking, it's the elimination of the means, the rights, and the will to resist these Marxist plans that they are seeking. In their views, a citizen with a firearm had both the means and will to speak out against the system. By eliminating guns, they bemuse themselves with the notion that America's masses will simply ignore the laws of both GOD and the constitution; and willingly submit to their new world order.

When there is public opinion against their gun-grabbing program, they are quick to arm themselves beyond sensibilities, and militarize local police forces in the name of domestic security. In fact this show of force usually has the opposite effect, and results in a massive upscale of gun and ammunition sales. It creates a climate of hate and dissection, which divides the nation even further. In every national issue, these liberalized communists use religious rights, gun rights, and crime statistics to persuade public opinion.

Yet they never speak out against abortion, immigration, or family rights. It's rare to watch these power hungry people denounce their own party membership's crimes or sexual deviance. Instead, they call America's war veterans terrorists, and portray Christians as racists when church members speak out against the gruesome beheadings and genocidal slaughter occurring in Islamic countries. They give credibility to the Islamic State and Palestinian Hamas, while denouncing Israel for defending itself from Islamic terrorists. But give little concern to the North Korean slave labor camps where human suffering occurs around the clock.

 Short of a full scale civil uprising, the way to eliminate this nefarious agenda is to identify and publicize the people pushing forward these Marxist plans. To make them understand that even though they may hold public offices, their tenure in the public sector is wholly reliant on the will of We The People, and as such, their collective communist asses are under America's microscope...

THE PRESIDENT’S COUNCIL ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: The Specter Of Death

AAA-WAR_ON-humanity

 

 

I’ve been reading and researching nearly every facet of the Agenda-21 for the last two years. After much exhaustive research I’ve concluded that Agenda-21 is the most heinous scheme ever perpetuated upon humanity by the global elite. What’s really mind boggling, is the fact that Agenda-21 is already so deeply entrenched in America, that I fear little can be done to stunt its forward momentum.

 

To tell you the truth, it scares the crap out of me. It scares me because the vast majority of people aren’t even aware of its existence; thereby they have no clue what is in store for their grandchildren in the next 20-30 years. A future that makes everything else inconsequential, in terms of civil liberties, religious freedom, family values, and other frightening aspects of a global government apparatus. One only has to look closely at Communist China, or North Korea, to see where Agenda-21 will take America in the future.

 

As many of you already know; I rarely present a problem, without offering a solution. To me, there are far to many people spreading fear, and not enough people offering solutions. That is why many conspiracy theories are shot-down, and little is done to stem the flow of disinformation about current issues, and events that are affecting our way of life, and civil liberties. The State Propaganda Machine is busy creating doubt, confusion, and disinformation through carefully orchestrated media manipulations.

 

But, I’m not easily fooled, and THIS AGENDA-21 pisses me off…!

 

As a hardcore survivalist I look at issues from a survival perspective:

1] What is the seriousness of the threat

2] What is the potential for the threat to emerge

3] What is the likelihood that I will be affected by the threat

4] What are the initial indicators that the threat has emerged, or is emerging

5] What actions must I undertake to mitigate my own risk or exposure to the threat

6] What are the long term, and short term strategies that I must develop to protect myself from the threat

 

Folks, unless there is a sudden and inexplicable rush to denounce Agenda-21, I fear that it’s already to late for most “asleep at the wheel” Americans. You see, the problem with Agenda-21 is the simple fact that already 178 Countries have signed as signatories to this devious plot. That leaves little opportunities to counteract their plan, and even less places (Safe Havens) to relocate to. Since their sinister plan snatches all the land, and uses a global police force to prevent entry into the Biodiversity areas, it will be a challenge to simply “Bug Out”. 

 

The Answer:

Total Resistance

 

AGENDA_21_RESISTANCE_FRONT_COVER

 

AGENDA-21 IS NOT A JOKE

IT IS ALREADY BEING PROMOTED, AND INSTITUTED IN AMERICA BY THE FEDERAL, STATE, AND COUNTY GOVERNMENTS, AS WELL AS NON-GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONS

NO SURPRISE:

In the last year we have watched (on television) as the current administration has assisted various “Rebel” groups to overthrow their Islamic Rulers. Financial aid, weapons, and even air strikes have helped

to get rid of Dictators in several different countries. A prime example would be (the former and much dead) Libyan dictator Muammar Muhammad Abu Minyar al-Gaddafi.

AAAAAAAA-00002

The problem is very simple, once certain fundamental aspects can be grasped:

1.) Each of those countries were ruled by a dictator, that brought a small sense of cohesion to the countries wild-headed Jihadists.

2.) Dictators like Gaddaffi were both loved, and despised by his countrymen. But the one irrefutable fact is that he kept them ALL in check.

3.) The Muslim Brotherhood didn’t like Gaddaffi at all, because he wouldn’t allow them into his countries political process.

4.) Obama helps the Muslim Brotherhood overthrow Gaddaffi, and installs the same terrorist group that killed Egyptian President Anwar Sadat (for making peace with Israel)

5.) Without an Iron-Fisted Dictator, those small Islamic countries would have already been part of the world wide terror network of the Muslim Brotherhood, Taliban, and Al Qaida.

 

Coincidence…?

 

In rapid succession, the United States provides aid to other small Islamic countries amid their own civil wars. News footage of burning cars, dead babies, and atrocities filled our nightly news channels with an

never-ending plethora of violence filled scenes.

 

But Was It All In the name of Democracy, Or Is There Another More Sinister Reason Behind This….?

 

 

“”The Future Must Not Belong To Those That Slander The Prophet Of Islam”

—Obama speaking to the United Nations General Assembly

 

Would you consider it a coincidence that The Muslim Brotherhood said the same thing…?

 

Even the most illogical mind, could grasp the significance of this without to much contemplation…

Operational Security For Survivalists

SURVIVAL_PLANNING

 

Operational Security:

By Franke Schein

Copyright 2012 – All Rights Reserved

Considering all of the news laws bouncing around within the justice department, the growing trend among survivalists, seems to be a gradual withdrawal from mainstream survivalism; whereby many of the groups are headed underground, and off the radar.

 

Or so they think….

 

The fact remains that every Facebook page, every website, and every internet forum has already been infiltrated, should come as no surprise to anyone. It’s how they operate these days. The problem stems from several different factors, most of which can be directly tied to a very simple premise: Many militia groups are actively portraying themselves as a survival group.

 

Additionally; Facebook is deluged with a boatload of individual preppers claiming to be survivalists, but their avatar/picture depicts something entirely different. One cannot claim to be a survivalist, and then post pictures of themselves brandishing assault rifles, flying the Gadsden Flag, or sporting the 3% Patch. This is the single-most contradictory element that quickly arouses the attention of the various investigative agencies, and sends a clear signal to the general public that all survivalists are militia, and all militia are thus survivalists.

 

If you are claiming to be a survivalist, and consequently have Facebook friends that belong to a militia group; it would seem obvious that you are sympathetic to the militia ideologies. You will be judges by the associations that you maintain.

 

If your Facebook page is chock full of anti-government tirades, or you post anti-government statements; then it’s perfectly clear that you are anti-government. Thus, you pose a threat to those in power, and perpetuate the problems in, and of itself.

 

As I have stated in hundreds of articles over the past several years; it’s okay to hate the government, it’s okay to be militia oriented, and it’s even okay to stockpile supplies, arms, and ammunition. But what will quickly get a checkmark beside your name, is if that is ALL THAT YOU POST, and nothing else.

I have nothing against militia, as a matter of fact, I wrote one of the most controversial resistance books (The Lonewolf Resistance Manual) a few years ago that got a huge checkmark beside my name. But, I used my real name, and continue to do so—because I am not afraid to say what I mean, stand up for what I believe in, and I will absolutely not slink away in fear for my political views. That would be in contradiction to what I personally believe in. It would make me less than a Man, and that will never happen. I have no false assumptions that I have a nice warm cell awaiting me, and that the “Men In Black” would dearly love to beat my ass with rubber hoses. Yet, I am cognizant that I am responsible for my own actions, and thus equally prepared for whatever the future may hold for me.

I am not afraid to call myself a survivalist, because that is the absolute truth. I have no fear of what I do, or what I will do when SHTF, because everything that I do is above reproach, and within the tenants of survivalism.

There is no need for me to wear a mask to hide my identity, nor do I feel the need to threaten the government or elected leaders. None of my survival plans are offensive in nature, nor will I ever make plans to fight other Americans. GOD will take care of those when the time comes. –Make no mistake about it; the time is coming soon. 2500 years ago everything that is happening in the world was foretold, and revealed to mankind in the Holy Bible. There is not anything that can be done about it. We are all victims to it in one way or another. The best that we can hope for, is to be right with GOD, and to prepare ourselves and our families for the tribulations that will soon arrive.

 

My survival plans dictate that I lead my family and friends to a safe place where we can maintain some semblance of our former lives. That doesn’t include executing Hit & Run tactics against the perceived enemy, or blowing up buildings—it means that I, and those that I surround myself with, do what is necessary to remain safe, well fed, and out of harm’s way.

But, should we experience a situation that forces our hands in another direction; all bets are off, and then let the chips fall where they may. I call that TOTAL WAR. It means that every man, woman, and child fights to the death for what they believe in. A perfect example would be Poland 1933 when Hitler and Stalin attacked that small country from opposing sides. Every man, woman, and child armed themselves to protect their family, and then their country.

I see it this way; as more and more people become aware of the frightening aspects of what we will face in the coming years, it becomes clear that their fright has turned to anger—because they feel helpless. They understand the forces that are allied against them, but have come to understand that they alone can little impact the outcome. Others use this as an excuse to live out some morbid fantasy that sees them as the last hope for mankind—saving the women and children from the armies of darkness; marching victorious into Washington DC as the last standing heroes of the republic.

But, reality commands that they alone have neither the capacity, or the resources to actually accomplish anything other than to get themselves killed. They will probably get their family and friends killed as well.

 

How can anyone claim to stand for the Bill of Rights, when they won’t even get off their lazy-complacent apathetic ass and head for the voting booth…!

 

So why are there so many people calling themselves survivalists prepared to fight other Americans?

Because they are just repeating the diatribe of profiteers who seek to inflame and outrage the masses with their delusional hoopla that has little merit, and even less credibility. They cite case after case, and example after example—yet fail to invoke the true spirit of the “why’s and how’s” of their self-sustaining propaganda. These are the worst of the worst, and I hold them responsible for the mass-paranoia so-prevalent within the survival movement today. But, I also hold responsible those which have bought into this bullshit, and spread it further outwards because they have been “spoon fed” these lies, innuendos, and half-truths.

 

Here’s Is The Straight and Narrow Truth—whether you believe it or not…!

ü There are more of us, than them…

ü They have neither the manpower, or the resources, to arrest, detain, and judge every survivalists in the country today…

ü There isn’t enough bed space in all of the federal properties to adequately house forty five million people, nor do they have enough guards to keep all of them locked up…

ü They don’t care how many weapons or bullets that you have, unless you begin to post anti-government bullshit on the internet…

ü If you wear a mask, and call yourself a survivalist, then it’s your own fault when they come knocking on your door in the middle of the night…

ü If your Facebook page has tons of militia and resister friends, then you will be judged by the company that you keep… (Pretty Simple Equation To Digest)

ü The Rapture and Tribulation will occur, and there is absolutely nothing that you can do about it…

ü There is unequivocally no need to threaten the federal government, or its leadership, with harm, or force of arms. Keep your dumb ass mouth shut and go about your own business. IF and WHEN the time comes that you are forced to do something—that will be the time to threaten them, not before…

ü All your stupid ass ranting, threats, and raving accomplish nothing. Zip! Nada! It inflames the masses, and makes you look like a fool—say nothing of the people that know you personally, and on-line…

ü When the “Men In Black” surround your house in the middle of the night; turn off the juice, and blow through your door to stick a MP-5 sub-machinegun in your face--you are going to lay down on the floor and do “exactly” what they tell you. You are just bullshitting yourself if you think otherwise…

ü If you think that running away into the woods will provide you a safe haven—Say the following phrase to yourself until you remember it: “That Predator Missile Is Going To’ Ruin My Fucking Day…!”

ü The government has several divisions of highly trained Special Forces troops that will eat you alive, and not blink afterwards. You aren’t Rambo buddy!

 

That my friends is the absolute truth. Either believe it, or not. I could care less either way. All of this horseshit conspiracy theories is nothing but fluff. There is no place in the survival movement for fantasies. There is no place for anarchists, rogue paramilitary groups, and unquestionably no place for people that are “weak-in-the-head” that buy into that line of horseshit.

Survival Underground: Are you skeered

394042_347576951936315_100000520392689_1315989_1889722334_n

 

It’s uncanny the number of people and groups that have headed underground to bury themselves from the mainstream survival movement; due to some false assumption that Big Brother is watching them, and awaiting the opportunity to swoop in and snatch them from their beds.

Why On Earth Would They Do That?

 

Lets get something straight right now: They do not have the manpower, resources, or funding, to locate, identify, and catalog every survivalist or group operating the the country today—we number something along the lines of 45-MILLION PEOPLE.

 

Where is This All Coming From?

It is the result of sensationalism at the hands of a select group of paranoid delusionals that need to create controversy and strife in order to further perpetuate their own image of self-importance—because they have nothing else to offer…

These are the people that generally talk-the-talk, but have no clue how to walk-the-walk; the kind that thrives under the spotlights of attention, and that is all that they have in their repertoire of skills and experiences—lip service.

 

Real survivalists don’t give a rats ass about what the feds are doing. They go about the business of survival with a determined outlook, a straight-hitting reality based plan that takes into account all of the possibilities, and no amount of sensationalism will deter them from the plans that they have made. It’s the people that don’t have a plan that will suffer.

 

FACT CHECK

The Federal Bureau of Investigation employs approximately 30,00 people. The FBI is the leading agency tasked with domestic investigation. NO OTHER AGENCY carries that responsibility, or has congressional authority to investigate the citizenry of America.

 

The National Security Agency: Though the number of personnel are classified; the NSA is the worlds leading edge cryptographic intelligence agency. It remains the forerunner within the electronic surveillance arena. 

Fusion Centers: These are part of the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) which is tied at the waits to Department of Homeland Security (DHS). These centers are designated to monitor groups, websites, forums, and electronic media, in order to ascertain whether a domestic terror plot exists.

Trucking Denuded

321655_306082302752447_100000520392689_1185732_69029701_n

 

Having spent a number of years in Alaska, and then returning to the Lower-48 to work, I was utterly shocked at what has happened to the trucking industry down here since my absence. It’s simply appalling what has is going on out here, and I am shocked that the mega-carriers with all of their fancy lawyers and lobbyist, have allowed this tragedy to occur. The trucking industry has been castrated, denuded, and has become a train-wreck on a collision course with the future. It’s no wonder that the trucking industry has lost a quarter of a million experienced professional truck drivers.

The new ( so called) safety  laws are nothing more than yet another example of regulatory control imposed by a cadre of power-hungry paraprofessionals that are out of touch with reality. A reality which exists only in their minds, and is far removed from the realities of mainstream America.

Only in their minds can they sleep at night knowing full well that these laws are nothing short of absurdly insane, and will have absolutely no effect whatsoever within the realities that they have conjured up in their fragile minds. Let’s face facts, well documented facts. Most accidents involving commercial vehicles and passenger vehicles are the fault of the passenger vehicle’s driver. Not the other way around. So the safety aspect of these new laws just went out the window.

Exploring the new CSA, and what it means to carriers, as well as their drivers; represents the foulest of all monopolies that exists; slight-of-hand tactics designed to reach deep into the wallets of the carriers, and their individual driver-employees. These “smoke and mirror” tactics are not based upon safety, they exist to generate revenues in order to further perpetuate the existence of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. They, like other government agencies must establish and uphold their own existence, as well as show profitability while completing their assigned responsibilities. In fact, it has become so bad, that the FMCA should replace the American Eagle emblem depicted on their official logo, with the US Dollar Emblem.

No other industry in America forces a worker to be paid less than minimum wage; yet demands a 70-Hour work week with no provisions for over-time pay. No other industry in America forces a worker to work 14-Hours each day, without the benefit of a mandatory rest period. Yet each day millions of professional drivers are forced to adhere to these insane working conditions. Migrant farm laborers have more protection under the various minimum wage laws, and their respective labor laws, than the trucking industry does. An industry which insures the movement of the country’s gross national products on a global scale.

Truck drivers holding a commercial drivers license, are forced to adhere to more regulatory compliances than a commercial passenger jet pilot does. Each and every infraction is regulated to the point that the Constitutional provision of double jeopardy, and self-incrimination have been forced out of the equation. In no other industry can the authorities force a worker to produce evidence of guilt or misconduct, without a subpoena or warrant. Yet truck drivers have to produce not only a log book upon demand, but are also required to produce their fuel receipts, load documentation, as well as any electronic records stored within on-board computer systems.

A decade ago the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration passed legislation which made it illegal for a professional driver to have a radar detector in a commercial motor vehicle.  The radar detector issue was touted as having the potential in reducing the number of highway related fatalities. In fact, the reality of this new regulation brought an immediate and discernible increase in the revenues experienced by the state, and their respective counties and municipalities. That, and in itself, was the scope and intent of the radar-detector law, and it worked. Violation revenues increased to the point that various State Police Departments across the country, saw an immediate surplus of funds at fiscal year’s end. A high percentage of those funds were invested in new patrol officers and their police cruisers; who immediately went about the State’s business of traffic control—generating even more revenues, to the point that many State Police Departments became self-funding, and experienced phenomenal further growth of their surplus revenues.

The next step appeared in the form of yet another foul safety procedure: As each state increased the speed limit for passenger vehicles from 55 MPH to 65 MPH, the legislators decided that since most trucks are governed within the 65 mile per hour range; the loss of violation revenues would be problematic. Thus, while passenger cars roared across the interstate system at speed reaching upwards toward ninety; professionals drivers faced even stiffer fines if caught exceeding the speed limit by more than 6 miles an hour. Fines that were already out of control nearly doubled.

The next measure introduced the 12 Mile Per Hour Rule: If a CDL holder was caught driving over the speed limit by 12 MPH, the penalties were severe.  67 Miles and Hour in a 55-Zone resulted in a hefty fine, the administration of 5-7 Points on the driver’s record; and in many cases a suspension of the drivers license. This new law was designed to intimidate the trucking industry's driver work force. It did not affect any of the safety indexes, nor did it reduce the number of crashes, or crash fatalities within the transportation industry. In fact; the number of Truck-Car crashes increased dramatically due to a serious flaw in regulatory thinking—Slow moving trucks impeding the traffic flow resulted in a higher number of passenger vehicles slamming into commercial vehicles. All the while, the violation revenue base steadily climbed upwards into the state treasury coffers at an alarming rate. As is usually the case; the safety conscious public was duped again. Reports flowed in from across the country depicting the high number of car-truck crashes; it was one of those “See, we told you so” moments, and the public bought into the lie.

Now were are seeing the ultimate travesty playing out right in front of our noses. The Safety Hungry public wants trucks, and their drivers that operate within strict guidelines. It doesn’t matter that most new car television commercials show fast cars overtaking slow trucks, nor does it matter to these same safety conscious people are the one’s still slamming into trucks, cutting them off in traffic, or racing helter-skelter between exit ramps. What matters is that the huge trailer is blocking their view of the highway—and that is a situation that must be controlled. After all; they did pay their taxes last year, and what right does that big truck have in impeding their view, and holding up the flow of traffic when everybody is screaming to work at ninety miles an hour.

 

It’s absurd to be forced to drive for nearly eleven hours straight, because under these ludicrous laws, no longer can a trucker pull over near rush hour, and take a 2-3 hour nap. This creates unfavorable rush hour traffic, and demands that the driver remain seated throughout the fourteen hours while the proverbial clock is ticking away.

The Carrier Safety Act is nothing less than a symbol of ultimate government control. It stinks to the high heavens of judicial injustice at a level previously unheard of. It represents the culmination of a new breed of administrators who clearly have little understanding of the intricacies involving the cross-country distribution of consumer commodities, much less the needs and requirements of a truck driver that keeps the Gross National Product flowing from coast to coast, and sea to shining sea. As long as the carriers, drivers, and trucking association remain mute and docile on these matters, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration will continue to dog the transportation industry with regulations and operating criteria which ultimately will destroy it from within.
