This is pretty telling about economic anxiety... UPS drivers were offered a hefty payout package, but the campaign has failed to achieve its goal due to lack of interest. With a weak freight economy, there is little interest for UPS drivers in leaving to join a different firm.

I enthusiastically supported Trump's victory in the November election. I thought I was voting for pro-business policies and small, targeted, and incremental tariffs that would encourage the production of strategic industries to return to the Americas. I.e., what we got in the first Administration. I did not vote for a neutron bomb to wipe out supply chains and small businesses 100 days in.

BREAKING: Mack Trucks will lay off between 250 and 350 workers at its Lehigh Valley Operations center in Pennsylvania, citing economic uncertainty caused by Trump’s tariffs, a company spokesperson said Thursday.

Trump Tariffs Slash Chinese Imports from 40-50 Containers Daily to 3-6, Leaving U.S. Trucking Industry Stranded. The Trump administration's tariffs, particularly on Chinese imports, have intensified global trade disruptions, creating ripple effects that hit the U.S. trucking industry hard. As Chinese exporters abandon shipments to dodge crushing tariffs, the volume of goods entering U.S. ports has plummeted, with one export company reporting a drop from 40-50 containers daily to just 3-6 containers. This sharp decline in freight volume has slashed demand for trucking services that transport these imports, leading to lower revenue for trucking companies, with some facing layoffs or reduced hours for drivers.
