Why don’t they just issue a shelter in place order to drive down demand and flatten the curve?

Yeah. That’ll help the situation.

A couple comments.
As an owner of a trucking business in this market, I have taken a new approach. It was mentioned by one of our members that he’s been turning down busy work. Maybe another thread. Haha. But be it as it is, my business decision as of now was to do the same. Truckers paying the over average cushion if this increase, can’t just work to make ends meet anymore. There has to be a margin. I parked in order to lower demand and up my margins back where they need to be for a spell. There’s lots of work out there for us, but when things are this unstable, it’s impossible to set real prices on delivery.
Next point…
I’ll use my time doing what I love, and while it might cost me, I can go broke easier doing what I love than providing access to things that still won’t open eyes. And busting my ass for it.
Any locals have fuel prices between Missoula and Wisdom, via Phillipsburg or Anaconda, or Darby???? Just looking for an avg. Diesel only please……

That’s all it takes
Edited….let’s just print more. That’ll fix it

I wonder how many prints it’ll take till that $1400 a year will ALMOST buy you a tank of gas and a weeks meals for your family. Budget meals at that!!

Don’t take me wrong, I took use of everything I could during that time so I’m to blame too. But I also did it knowing that this is where it COULD lead. IMO, those aren’t the true answers
