Obama doesn't give a damn about Americans or our jobs. And it's going to be a whole lot more than 150,000 jobs, this was just the first set of applications. Good buy truckdriving industry, and anyone working at a truck stop had better learn fluent Spanish or they can expect to be replaced.

Maybe more illegal drugs and human smuggling imports...

Scarry that they will allow these trucks into our country more wrecks and deaths.

Are they to be CDL certified and their equipment up to date? Will they be required to speak english?

Its basically giving the American people what they want. Everything for as cheap as possible. Lets face it, we've become a nation of consumers hellbent on "keeping up with the Joneses". The cheaper stuff is, the more we can fuel our insatiable needs. Using cheap labor is a key to keeping the masses happy so they can continue buying stuff to get their fix while keeping companies in business.
