The “trucker shortage” fake narrative has led to cargo thefts across the nation, trucking execs created this crisis and now play the victim

by

The American Trucking Association (ATA) is out here feigning outrage over cargo thefts like the Guy Fieri tequila heist that just hit 60 Minutes—24,000 bottles of Santo Tequila vanished in a slick double-brokering scam.

For years, the ATA has lied to the entire country, federal agencies, and legislators about a “truck driver shortage” that doesn’t exist. It’s a cover to justify flooding the industry with hundreds of thousands of foreign drivers, lowering standards, and ignoring the real issues like crap pay and brutal conditions that cause high turnover.

Now, as the criminals they helped usher in by pushing this fake narrative start pillaging loads across the nation, the ATA plays the victim?

Nah. The real crooks everyone should focus on are the suits at the ATA—the ones who orchestrated the big lie to line their pockets while the industry crumbles.

Time to haul the ATA to account.
