I'm a construction truck broker in Northern California. My company
supplies trucks to most of the large construction companies in the
Sacramento Valley. I also have 2 children ages 10 and 12. I think
its horrible the financial devastation you will bring this
industry. I employ over 100 owner operators that have said if this
law takes effect, most of them will go out of business. 20% of my
work force are close to retirement and do not want to spend their
last few years trying to pay off a truck that costs over
$125,000.00 Dollars. That will totally screw up their chances of
retiring with somewhat of a nickle in their pockets. The economy is
in financial ruin. Banks can't seem to see straight to loan money.
Work load is at its worst level since the 1990's and you want to
impose this horrible rule? You simply can not do this with a clear
concience, knowing full well the financial ruin you will bring
going down this path. As for my kids they will still breath
everyday. And hopefully enjoy the very food and clothing my job can
supply them. You see we all need to eat and survive with our lives.
And by the way unemployment has no room for the amount of people
you are about to bring down. Let that little secret be known!
