Global Corruption in trade and nationally...Logistics

Before we try to clean up others, we should perhaps look at our own borders and the central bank, and wall-strips corruption...Logistics is the biggest corruption, fraud, theft of services from truckers and shippers and receivers and the biggest Pyramid Scam in Sales that we will see in our lifetime.. It is the break down of industry, businesses, loss of jobs, homes lost, etc...Madoff doesn't have anything on this gig or the housing market of freight brokers who are mere thieves. Big Bankers who have NO LAWS, NO ONE MANDATING THEM OR GUARDING THE HEN HOUSE WHILE THE WOLVES FIEST. NOTHING IN THE CFR'S governing them. This is why our economy is in a mess and business is gone, as its in the elite fews back pockets. I think that US NEWS should step up to the plate and ask President Obama's Administration, and our US Congress where in the Federal Laws does it say that freight brokers who are mere "Conduit" of funds in the CFR with no accountability nor transparency to ANYONE, were ever allowed to become BIG BANKERS? Where is the protection to business? Where is the FDIC, WHAT ABOUT ANTI-TRUST LAWS BROKEN, as a freight broker Logistic Guru will tell a trucker thats all they have in it, price hile charging a receiver a arm and a leg, and do this with no equipment and a fax and phone. Taxpayers also pay dearly for this theft of services, as military loads are moved and so are Fema loads...I believe its time for Congress to be accountable to the people and to get to the truth here, as these are attorneys who sit in many of those seats. I'd like to file a lawsuit against these BIG BANKERS....for their lies...their theft, their inflated commissions, while others run on pure dumb luck....They are desperate damn housewives sitting in those seats and not paying attention. We have the mob out here running this show. How did these Logistic Guru's effect GM? Who moved GM products? Did GM ever know their TRUE SHIPPING COSTS? I can assure you, the Big 3 CEO'S DREAM TEAM FROM GM...should arrive once again in their jets to visit the kids on the hill, and see the bigger jets the Logistics Folks arrive in, as you cannot have a fuel crisis and have lets just say Total Quality Logistics out of Ohio rake in a 50% profit in 2008, while every truck out here and our economy is busted. I'd also like to ask Congress...Why is our highway fund broke? Truckers pay big time in IFTA taxes to run goods, and freight brokers who are just like truckers and run under a MC number just like truckers, do not pay a damn dime, yet they are the ones that have 733 million in profits.....US NEWS...DO YOU SEE OUR PROBLEM? ITS CALLED LOGISTICS, AND JOE PLUMMER, NOR MADOFF, NOR THE HOUSING MARKET CAN BEAT THIS GIG!! WAKE UP NEWS PEOPLE.....YOUR SLEEPING THROUGH IT ALL......AMERICA SLEEPS WHILE TRUCKERS RUN AT NIGHT...Take this globally in trade, and their goes our stimulus leaving our borders in thin air.......through LOGISTICS......THROUGH CORRUPTION AND FRAUD....

RESPECTFULLY

Ms. Greenhouse is calling on all Americans to support whistleblower protection for federal employees. To read her letter go to http://capwiz.com/whistleblowers/issues/alert/?alertid=13371836
