People are still getting hit...and smashing their own cars up...

My business make alot more money now compared to when the last president was in there. But costs are up sky high now so in the end I make less now. Im an owner operator, dump truck. I could never have started my business this year or last. Used to just replace stuff on the truck because it may break in the future, now I only fix stuff when i have to. Still keeping it safe just not doing anything extra. During orange man I bought a used dump truck paid it off in a year. Couldnt do that now, can drop $300 in a day into my fuel tank!

My friend ran his own logging truck for years...replacing motors...repair the pup trailer. Then Biden got elected...and the 500.00 per day fuel bill ..forced him out.

Now he gets a paycheck every week..401 k...no fuel bills...no repair bills...less hours ..less headaches..Doing the same thing for a big company...and he said...I should have done this when diesel went through the roof...instead of hanging on.

Big companies are paying good money for a warm body with a pulse

Obama recession and then the Covid shut down were the two most recent times I recall 2 buck gas.
I'd pass on both of them another time around if given a choice.
