Why don't you quit your job, too?  

Do you really think a few truckers refusing to haul stuff to New York is going to hurt anyone but the truckers themselves?

My job has zero bearing on the state of New York, but it's clear that you have no concept of the breadth of independent trucking.

I was just learning about game theory and the concept of [BLEEP] for tat. It's one of the most effective ways of ensuring the most positive outcome for the most people. It only works if you punish someone when they do something wrong. Imo, establishment politicians have not had to face any consequences for bad decision making, which is why we've hit this downfall in modern society. Too many people are turning a blind eye.

They've created their own safe space where they don't feel the impact of their decisions and it's very difficult to root out the ones who toe the Establishment line. It's why people like Pelosi and Yertle the Turtle stay in power so long. The Grass Roots have to be the ones to do this, it will never come from within.
