Truckers Protest Diesel Prices

Several truckers have been slapped upside the head with the price of diesel fuel. Now, diesel is the highest price motor fuel going. Some independent truckers have been parking their trucks as a form of protest and bring attention to the high price of diesel. As if we hadn't noticed.

So what you say? What do a bunch of scruffy looking truckers have to do with me? EVERYTHING. Items from wrapping paper to bongs are delivered by trucks.

If ALL truckers decided to park their trucks in protest, the country would be at a stand still. Televisions, DVDs and martial aids would all sit gathering dust in warehouses. Do you want that, America (and other countries reading this blog)?


As the high price of diesel continues to cut into the profits of independent truckers, a nationwide protest could be next.
