America’s Devastated Trucking Industry - By: GARKO

The economy has been hit hard in so many ways by the increase in gas and diesel prices but nowhere has it been hit harder than in the trucking industry which is the lifeblood which keeps America circulating. Not the individual household, not the airline industry, nowhere has the impact been greater than on the trucking industry

How hard is the trucking industry being hit?

The national average price for diesel rose sixteen cents last week from the previous week and has gone up by 1/3rd just since the start of the year

The number of trucking companies filing for bankruptcy in the first quarter of 2008 was up 1/5th from the first quarter of 2007 at almost one thousand companies

This catastrophe for the truckers is hurting every other aspect of the American economy and beyond. 3/4s of consumables are moved to the consumers in America by trucks. How else are you going to get lobster to Kansas for instance? . So the price of all of these things will be going up if they have not started to already Go to the supermarket and you will already see this impact. Food prices are being hit by inflation, the artificial scarcity brought on by the shift of growing crops for food to growing crops for energy and the increased costs for the truckers to move food to the supermarket shelves.

The higher cost of trucking has also made our highways less safe. There are regulations that truckers are supposed to follow as to how long a duration they can be out on the road driving and how long that they have to rest in between shifts. Already, under more normal economic conditions, these regulations were routinely stretched. But now there are less trucking companies and less truckers carrying the same load so something’s gotta give somewhere. Truckers are also willing to work longer hours because they are making less profit per hour. So we have more jackknifed trucks out there on the road and more death and destruction of the lives of America’s truckers and unfortunate souls who happened to be on the road at the time that the driver started to doze and lost control. This is in addition to the lost lives due to biodiesel worldwide because of the shift from growing crops for food to growing crops for energy. Those number in the 10s of millions dieing from starvation and is a hushed up holocaust happening right now.

The havoc caused by the Bush administration and the Federal Reserve policies over the last eight years is going to be with us for decades. If we want to maintain anything close to the lifestyle that we have enjoyed in previous years then we need to get creative on the grassroots level with real solutions disseminated in the fastest way possible, which right now is the internet.
One such solution is Water4Gas.
WATER4GAS is offering information at a low price which folks can use in their garage or wherever to create a small device which infuses hydrogen into the gasoline/air mixture that their car runs on.
The process makes bite sized particles out of the ones that the system uses as fuel. So the engine is able to use a lot more of it.
By doing this you can reasonably expect to increase your fuel economy by 30-50% or significantly more. Those goblets must have been pretty "blankin'" huge in some engines before. But with W4G they are made usable so you can increase your fuel economy.
It also helps reduce emissions significantly.
This package of info has been purchased by over 10s of 1000s of individuals already and happy members number about 99%! So how about you?
