How to fix the American trucking industry
“While trucking is generally considered a high-quality blue-collar job, median pay for truckers is only around $42,000. That’s more than $10,000 below the median household income in America. There are truckers who make six-figure salaries, sure, but they are rare. Once you adjust for inflation, pay for truckers has fallen anywhere from 35 to 40 percent over the last four decades.”
