Do you believe Jimmy Carter intended to put dozens of union trucking companies out of business with deregulation? I don’t. I think they do things without really understanding what they’re doing most of the time. Probably because they got a large donation from someone.We live in a crony capitalist society. There’s really not much I can do about that at this point it’s not going to change. The government will interject their selves in our system for better or worse. The point is deregulation hurt The trucking industry that was heavily unionized and heavily in pensions. Once those trucking companies went out of business, our pension fund never stood a chance at paying all those orphaned members.</blockquote>
