2. Duh
3. World Economic Forum? Are they the new ANTIIIIIIIIIIIFA?
4. Tell that to Ukraine (spelling makes me believe its not a domestic tweet but then again, it probably is)
5. Driving across country to set up bouncy castles, block traffic and blow your horns is a civil liberty?
Why is your friend baling out?

She is pulling out to grab a load to take back to Cali. She is not the owner operator and even though had the blessing did not want to waste the owners money on burning fuel.0 -

I guess it's kinda difficult to get people to protest against mostly nonexistent mandates.
From USA TODAY:Another trucker protest convoy falters as numbers thin
A truck convoy that rolled out of California bound for the nation's capital to protest COVID-19 mandates and other matters has given up because of lack of trucker interest.
"The launch in California had a good turnout of supporters, but only 5 trucks were with us on arrival in Vegas," organizers of Freedom Convoy USA said Saturday on the group's Facebook page. "There are 2 other convoys that have massive turnouts."
The organizers encouraged truckers who had expressed interest in joining their ranks to join other convoys headed to Washington, D.C., to air similar concerns. The Freedom Convoy had left Los Angeles on Friday, planning on reaching Washington on Tuesday.
Now the organizers are directing any truckers who had been interested in joining them to join the People’s Convoy that left California earlier last week or the Texas Convoy that has been trying to organize a drive to start in about a week. The group said it had $6,500 that will be dispersed to truckers who reach Maryland and Washington D.C.

Don’t know if this belongs here or not, didn’t know which thread. But anyone who takes Uber regularly, have you seen a huge spike? We only do a few times a year, and a trip to the airport has tripled in 2 years.
First time using it it costs about $30 to go to the airport, about a 20 minute drive. Just checked for tomorrow morning, they wanted $105! I know gas is up, but come on. $105 for a 20 minute ride? No thanks.
Is there a shortage of drivers or what’s going on?0 -

Did you see where China is shutting down manufacturing facilities and locking down cities because of covid, further exacerbating supply chain issues and inflation?

I understand it's not the worst thing in the world, but a lot of senior citizens are very regimented in their diets, and their budgets, so yeah, a simple thing as no bananas or lettuce could be stressful for them. to us it's just mildly annoying, but we adapt. not everyone can.By The Time They Figure Out What Went Wrong, We'll Be Sitting On A Beach, Earning Twenty Percent.0 -
At the grocery store I shop at here in Canada, the cereal isle has been a ghost town for weeks. A few items left but mostly empty. I was quite shocked when I was at the Walmart in port angeles and their cereal isle was completely full. In fact I didn't see much of any empty shelf space in the store. I guess the US is having less supply chain issues than we are.

They announced fare hikes but not to that extreme.I haven’t seen super pumped, but that slowly raise prices might be it. A few bucks a month Combined with possibly driver shortage creating a permanent high demand situation.Post edited by mace1229 on0
