As Jim Hightower explains it, is that “the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans possess more net worth today than the bottom 90 percent of us combined. Worse, these privileged few and their political henchmen have structured a new economic ‘normal’ of long-term joblessness, low wages, no benefits or worker rights, miserly public services, and a steadily widening chasm between the rich and the rest of us.” We must restore sanity to this nation.

Picture of me leaving bright and early in the morning on the first trip to Metro Metals in Portland with this new truck/trailer loaded with scrap metal:

The trip went well as shake down cruises go.  I learned some things about my new 1979 GMC and salvage salvage trailer - as hoped.  The trip was worthwhile. Please use our handy CLICK TO BIGGIFY to make pic larger.

Thanks man! I find that this particular GMC is what might be called a "gentleman jim", in that it was built with a pick up box on it and dual wheels a "doolie" if you must. The springs are a bit soft for my use, but I just happen to have some springs off a REAL 1 ton truck that I just today dragged into the shop...that's about a $1500 dollar load. I don't do it often, but getting better rig might make it more possible.
