1 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 1: This is America's Trucking Network with Kevin Gordon. 2 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 2: Lulhame more. 3 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,919 Speaker 3: Thanks for tuning in on this Thursday morning atn the 4 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 3: show that is the exception of the rule that nothing 5 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 3: good happens after midnight. 6 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 2: By the way, happy thaw Day. 7 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 3: I'll let that sink in for a second. You may 8 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:32,879 Speaker 3: be asking Kevin, what the hell is slaw day? That 9 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 3: is the day according to Butterball Turkey and some of 10 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,279 Speaker 3: the turkey experts that if you have a turkey and 11 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 3: it's frozen, this is the day you take it out 12 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 3: of the freezer put it in the refrigerator in order 13 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 3: to get it to thaw. And they talk about in 14 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 3: terms of rule of thumb. Now, you didn't expect to 15 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:50,920 Speaker 3: get on here and get a cooking show, but you 16 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 3: know that just explains and shows the diversity of this 17 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 3: show and how wide range of knowledge we have. You 18 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 3: pull it out of the refri what is it every 19 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 3: day for every four pounds of turkey? And so again 20 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 3: you just have to back that off. Now, once the 21 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 3: turkey is thawed, it can stay in the refrigerator for 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 3: up the four days. So if it thaws out earlier 23 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 3: than you know, the day of Thanksgiving or that Wednesday, 24 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 3: or whenever you're going to prepare the meal, it will 25 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 3: be good for four days in the refrigerator. So again, 26 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 3: happy thaw a day, and thank you. You're welcome from 27 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 3: America's Truck and Network. Got some interesting information here on 28 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 3: the housing alarm. There's a well they're calling it a 29 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 3: housing alarm. I would say it's just a kind of 30 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,199 Speaker 3: a blip on the radar screen. Housing alarm. As half 31 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 3: of US homes fall in value, biggest drop since the 32 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,199 Speaker 3: Great Recession. Home values are falling for more than half 33 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 3: of America, the biggest shares since the country was last 34 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 3: clawing its way out of the Great Recession. Now, based 35 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 3: on that headline, and based on that first sentence, you 36 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 3: would think, oh my god, this guy's falling and housing 37 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 3: market is going to hell in a handbasket. Things are 38 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 3: not working out the way they should. However, we'll get 39 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 3: into that here. New data from Zillo shows that fifty 40 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 3: three percent of US homes have lost value over the 41 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 3: past year, the highest level since twenty twelve, when the 42 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 3: housing crash finally hit bottom. National market looks flat on paper, 43 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 3: but the average masks huge differences in regions, cities, and 44 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 3: even neighborhoods. Price have been slipping in much of the 45 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 3: South and the West as more homes in the market 46 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 3: and buyers stay on the sidelines. 47 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: Well, let's just cut through the crap here. 48 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 3: They go through all these these sentences here and makes 49 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 3: it seems alarming and all that, But the bottom line 50 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 3: here is we'll talk about it is what we saw 51 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 3: as far as the pandemic. A lot of home values 52 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 3: soared during that period of time, and we're hitting record peaks, 53 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 3: and there was rampant well if you want to call 54 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 3: it inflation in terms of the prices, in terms of 55 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 3: when you look at the value of the homes, how 56 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 3: fast these homes were rising. There were areas in the 57 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 3: country where we were seeing fifteen sixteen percent increases in 58 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 3: home values just in a one year period of time. 59 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 3: And at some point in time you get to the 60 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 3: point where that has to kind of pull back a 61 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 3: little bit and get back to some sort of normalization. 62 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,679 Speaker 3: And this is what it is. But the fifty three 63 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 3: percent number has to do with some of the locations 64 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,519 Speaker 3: when you talk about some of the more populous parts 65 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 3: of the country and some of the country, some of 66 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 3: the cities within these particular states where people were flocking 67 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 3: to because during the whole you know, again getting back 68 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 3: to the pandemic, when people realize that they can work 69 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 3: from home, or we saw stories about people who just said, well, 70 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 3: you know what, I don't you know if i'm you know, 71 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 3: if I'm in the Midwest or I'm up north or 72 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 3: something like that, if I'm doing remote shoot, I could 73 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 3: be down in Florida, I can be in the Bahamas, 74 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 3: I can be wherever it is. And so I'll rent 75 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 3: a place down there or buy a place down there. 76 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 3: Then they had a little conundrum once this company said 77 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 3: you know what, this ain't working. We're going to bring 78 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: people back in the office. And they're saying, well, wait 79 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 3: a minute, I've already moved down here. Well that's not 80 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 3: the company's problem, that's your problem. And so anyway, with 81 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 3: people moving to these you know, hotspots and stuff, of course, 82 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 3: when you have an influx of people, when you have 83 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 3: a limited supply, those prices are going to go up. 84 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 3: When you look at and here on the map, it 85 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 3: looks like well, Portland, San Francisco, Sacramento, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Denver, Dallas, 86 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 3: San Antonio, Austin, Tampa, Jacksonville and Orlando. 87 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 2: Most of these countries, most of. 88 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 3: These cities are in either resort areas or in very 89 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 3: areas where it's sunny in the south and where the 90 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 3: weather is more pleasant than up north where you deal 91 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,359 Speaker 3: with the snow. So again the map breaks down using houses, 92 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 3: and of course again with the people in those areas. 93 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 3: When you take the large metropolitan groups in the metropolitan areas, 94 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 3: of course that's going to be a bulk of the houses, 95 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 3: and that's why that fifty three percent number is there. 96 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 3: But when you look at individual neighborhoods, when you look 97 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 3: at areas like my area, here, my area, and there 98 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 3: here in Greater since Northern Kentucky area, our prices are 99 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 3: pretty stable. As a matter of fact, during the plant 100 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 3: or during the housing crisis back in twenty two thousand 101 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 3: and eight two thousand and nine, we did see in 102 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 3: certain areas about a forty percent decrease in the value 103 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 3: of homes as a result of that housing crisis, But 104 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 3: there were certain neighborhoods where that wasn't even affected at all. 105 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 3: There's a couple of neighborhoods in Northern Kentucky near me 106 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 3: which basically saw no decrease in terms of the value, 107 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 3: but again it depends on the individual pocket of the 108 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 3: area and so on. Now Tampa is seeing one of 109 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 3: the sharpest reversals in Florida, with over eighty percent of 110 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 3: the homes now worth less than a year ago. The 111 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 3: city's rapid run up in prices has given way to 112 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 3: steep corrections across much of the metro area. According to 113 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 3: Trey men Hurtz, senior economic researcher at Zillo, says, the 114 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 3: downturn is a normalization, not a crash. Now we have 115 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 3: to get to that phrase, a normalization instead of a crash. 116 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 3: On the second page of the story, I mean, if 117 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 3: you just look at the headline, and again this gets 118 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 3: back to a lot of the stuff that I've been 119 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 3: talking about. If you're the type of person that are 120 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 3: just looking at the headlines, if you're a younger person, 121 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 3: which they ought with a lot of the younger people do. 122 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 2: All they do is they flash through their. 123 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 3: Phones, they look through the headlines, and that's what develops 124 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 3: their impression of what's going on in not only in 125 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 3: the country, the world or the economy. And so if 126 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 3: you see something housing alarm, as half of all us 127 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 3: homes fall and value biggest drop since the Great Recession. 128 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:52,919 Speaker 2: That would scare the hell out of you. 129 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 3: But when you get to the second page and it 130 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 3: looks at and they get into it and say that, well. 131 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: It's based a correction. 132 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 3: It's not a panic type of thing. 133 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 2: It's just a normal return to normalization. 134 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 3: Despite the widespread decline, their few homeowners are really underwater. Naturally, 135 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 3: the median gain and since the house was last sold 136 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 3: is sixty seven percent, So people that bought their homes 137 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 3: whenever whenever, it is the average across the board is 138 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 3: that house is now worth sixty seven percent more than 139 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 3: what it was when you first bought it, you know, 140 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 3: clicking dirty math, if you bought the house for one 141 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars, it's now worth one hundred and sixty 142 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 3: seven thousand dollars. So if it comes down a little 143 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 3: bit in value of five percent, six percent, they'reabout range. 144 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 3: You're still well above that one. You know, a sixty 145 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 3: percent range increase in the terms as far as your 146 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 3: house is concerned. Nationally, a median gain since a home 147 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 3: was last sold to sixty seven percent. Mentioned that overall, 148 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 3: very few Americans are in the home worse than what 149 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 3: they less than what they paid for. Only four point 150 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 3: one percent of the US homes are now valued below 151 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 3: their last sale price, a smaller share than before the pandemic. 152 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 3: Even among new listings, just three point four percent are 153 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 3: priced below. 154 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 2: The seller origin. 155 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 3: The sellers originally paid roughly half the rate since seen 156 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 3: in twenty nineteen. So again you're talking about a small 157 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 3: percentage now from some of the stuff that I've observed 158 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 3: over the years, especially where I live, the condo complex 159 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 3: I live in, there have been situations where you look 160 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 3: at the value overall value of some of the properties. 161 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 3: And there was a year in which one couple that 162 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 3: was living there, their son bought a home down in 163 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 3: I think it was North Carolina and built on an 164 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 3: in law suite or an area for them to live, 165 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 3: and so they said, hey, mom and dad, come down 166 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 3: here and live with us. They price their condo at 167 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 3: a fire sale, which was they had been in that 168 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 3: unit for about twelve years. They priced it at what 169 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 3: they had paid for it then. So when they sold 170 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 3: that like right away, that pretty much, you know, in 171 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 3: terms of your comps, dropped the value of a lot 172 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 3: of the homes around the area. In the area, person 173 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 3: next door in a condo. He and his wife got married. 174 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 3: They had been talking in terms of and this all 175 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 3: happened in one year. This is probably about well, probably 176 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 3: about ten years ago. But these are some of the 177 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 3: things you have to look into the individual numbers to 178 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 3: see where they are actually at. So the couple got married, 179 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 3: they were talking about moving and they said, well, we're 180 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 3: going to be very slow about doing that. We want 181 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 3: to find the right house. We're not going to buy 182 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 3: a house and then have to sell our house or 183 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 3: sell the condo here in order to move in. Well, 184 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 3: as it turned out, they found a home that they loved, 185 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 3: and they had been looking for about a year year 186 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 3: and a half. They found a home that they loved, 187 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 3: they went ahead and bought it. And then their condo 188 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 3: they actually sold it for a a little bit right 189 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 3: around what they had paid for it, like six seven, 190 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 3: eight years before that. So when you have some of 191 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,079 Speaker 3: these type of situations going in there, that will affect 192 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 3: the overall price and may may give some of the 193 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 3: reason why some of these homes are on the market. 194 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 3: Three point four percent of the houses are less than 195 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 3: what they paid for. Coming on, we'll talk a little 196 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 3: bit more about this.

Now, 251 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 3: I love that phrase great recession because you know, my 252 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 3: memory is pretty clear that wasn't so great. I don't 253 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 3: know why you'd I mean, obviously I know why it's 254 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,719 Speaker 3: a great recession because it is, you know, because they 255 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,839 Speaker 3: call it the Great Depression back in the thirties. But 256 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 3: still great has to do with how large it is, 257 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,559 Speaker 3: not how wonderful it was. I can assure you of that. 258 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,079 Speaker 3: The Market Seeing, and we talked about in the previous segment, 259 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 3: as we ended up there even among new listings just 260 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: three point four percent our price below, with the seller 261 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 3: originally paid roughly half the rate scene in twenty nineteen, 262 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 3: Market Seeing the most listings priced below previously sale prices 263 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 3: were ones that surged fastest during the plandemic I mean pandemic, 264 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 3: including San Francisco, Austin, and San Jose. But in many 265 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 3: metros across the Northeast, Midwest and Great Lakes region, less 266 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 3: then two percent of sellers are taking a loss. So again, 267 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 3: kind of a more of a stable area and an 268 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 3: area that is not necessarily subject to the large fluctuations 269 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 3: up or large fluctuations down. 270 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 2: So kind of that steady stream. 271 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 3: You know, one of the advantages of having kind of 272 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 3: a steady market in terms of home prices or where 273 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 3: you live, or even in investments. When you go in 274 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 3: that rate, you're going to be getting the normal gains. 275 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 3: You're going to get the small gains. You're not going 276 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 3: to get the peaks, you're not going to get the 277 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 3: values you're just or valleys. You're going to get kind 278 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 3: of an overall upward trend. So I mean, it depends 279 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 3: on where you want to go. If you want to 280 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 3: go into a high area where the market is on fire, 281 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 3: you're also going to be suffering when you come back 282 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 3: and those prices drop. 283 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 2: So again it depends. 284 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 3: But the West, Northeast Midwest and Great Lakes region, less 285 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 3: than two percent of the sellers are taking loss. Denver 286 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 3: seeing the steepest slide in country, with ninety one percent 287 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 3: of homes falling from their peak value. The Mile High 288 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 3: City was once a pandemic boomtown boomtown, but rising supply 289 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 3: and weaker demand have now. 290 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 2: Pushed prices sharply lower. 291 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 3: Dallas Long Long, one of the strongest housing markets in 292 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 3: the South, has not escaped the cool down. About eighty 293 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 3: seven percent of the homes have dropped from the peak 294 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 3: value as a flood of new supply of higher borrowing 295 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 3: costs way on the mark on the demand, new supply 296 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 3: and borrowing cost way on demand. Austin's red hot housing 297 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 3: market has cooled dramatically, with eighty nine percent of the 298 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 3: homes now worth less than what they were at their peak. 299 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 3: Texas Capital was one of the nation's fastest growing metros 300 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 3: during the pandemic, but is now wrestling with oversupply and 301 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 3: falling buyer demand surgeon. The surgeon sales signs haven't brought 302 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 3: buyers back, and prices are now dropping in most of 303 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 3: the country again, getting back to a normalization, not a panic, 304 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 3: not the bottom dropping out of the market. It's just things, 305 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 3: you know, things off in the stratosphere, just kind of 306 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 3: coming back down to earth a little bit. So nothing 307 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 3: to be a panic's about. But I saw the story, 308 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 3: and I'm sure people are going to be talking about 309 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 3: that and spoon Federick urgitators in mainstream media will run 310 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 3: with that and try to make ky out of it. 311 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 2: But you know the story here and you know the facts. 312 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 3: Yesterday this was weird because I went on a couple 313 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 3: of websites early in the morning yesterday. I didn't have 314 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 3: a chance to talk about this. Yesterday we interviewed, we 315 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 3: had the interview with Phil Flynn that we were running, 316 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 3: and then we had some other stories that I wanted 317 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 3: to get to. But during the day I went online 318 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 3: to try to go on a couple of websites. And 319 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 3: you know, when I don't know about you, but me, 320 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 3: when I go to a website and all of a sudden, 321 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 3: they're saying, well, you know you've got to do this, 322 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 3: you got to do that because or you've got to 323 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 3: verify there to your hum And I'm thinking, wait a minute, 324 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 3: I'm going to this website every day now for the 325 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 3: last year. Why are they suddenly now asking if I'm 326 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 3: a human or whatever, what the hell is going on? 327 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 3: You know, you get out of the website, and you 328 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 3: go back in and you get some other weird message, 329 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 3: and I keep thinking, what am I doing wrong? 330 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 7: Was? 331 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 3: It turned out cloud Flare outage disrupts x chat, GPT 332 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 3: and other parts of the Internet. Cloud Flare, a company 333 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 3: that helps websites secure and manage their Internet traffic. Well, 334 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 3: apparently not so well if the websites went down experienced 335 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 3: an issue with a global network, the company said early Tuesday, 336 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 3: disrupting service for many websites and apps. Companies said it 337 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 3: believed the problem was resolved around nine to thirty a m. 338 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 3: Eastern through, roughly four hours after the first reported issue. 339 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 3: It said that it was continuing to monitor the situation, 340 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 3: and then it still had reports of intermittent errors. I'm 341 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 3: telling you what, at nine o'clock nine thirty, the websites, 342 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 3: that's when I discovered that the stuff was down. Because 343 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 3: I was looking at some other things and looking at 344 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 3: some of the stores hadn't gotten to the previous day 345 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 3: try to determine what I was going to do as far. 346 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 2: As the show during some early prep if you will. 347 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 3: But when I got on the websites at nine point thirty, 348 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 3: A lot of them were still down, and I'm thinking, 349 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,119 Speaker 3: oh my god, what's going on. Well, a couple minutes 350 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 3: and by about ten o'clock later that morning, they were 351 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 3: all up and running. Usually began reporting problems with the 352 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 3: website apps that used cloud Flare. Before seven am, the 353 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 3: company acknowledged on the website issue to potentially impact multiple customers. 354 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 3: By eight p fifteen, the company set at the error 355 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 3: levels and so on. 356 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 2: Again. 357 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 3: I kind of wonder about that, and if this is 358 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 3: a company that handles and tries to smooth out the 359 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 3: Internet traffic so that you don't have these outages, and 360 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 3: suddenly you have these outages, You'll wonder if there's a 361 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 3: glitch in their system, if they were hacked. Certainly they 362 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 3: don't want to admit to being hacked, because if they're 363 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 3: providing services to companies to make sure that their flow 364 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 3: is even, you certainly don't want to know that you're 365 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 3: You certainly don't want your customers to know that your 366 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 3: company was hacked, which means that they could probably get 367 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,639 Speaker 3: in there and hack these other companies through the portal 368 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 3: that you're opening. As far as some of the services 369 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 3: you're providing, So I guess we'll see one of these 370 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 3: days how that shook out. Multiple online services appeared to 371 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 3: have been affected by the issue at cloud Flare, including Spotify, Amazon, 372 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 3: Open Ai. According to down Detector and Online Outage Tractor 373 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 3: Tractor Tracker, the outage is a reminder that certain companies 374 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 3: have an outsized role in making the global Internet work. 375 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 3: Last month, Amazon Web Services experienced problems with its service, 376 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 3: disrupting a wide range of online services for hours. 377 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 2: Days later, Azure. 378 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 3: Microsoft's cloud service system, also experienced an outage. Last year, 379 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,719 Speaker 3: you may recall that cybersecurity firm cloud Strike experienced a 380 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 3: bigger outage that cause global it meltdown and hit airlines, hospitals, 381 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 3: and other online services. This just shows you how dependent 382 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 3: we are on the Internet and on some of these companies. 383 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 3: According to David Choffness. Choffness, a professor of computer science 384 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:25,199 Speaker 3: at Northwestern University, we now have aws Asure and cloud 385 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,399 Speaker 3: Flare outages in the span of a month. That's a 386 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 3: very large portion of the biggest cloud providers in the world. 387 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 3: It's not been the case that we have had seen 388 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 3: major outages like this in a short period of time. 389 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 3: He said, companies have had outages before, but they tend 390 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 3: to be pretty rare. These companies are supposed to be really, 391 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 3: really good at keeping things up. And so with these 392 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 3: different companies being hit, you know, when one has a problem, 393 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 3: you can call it maybe a glitch. 394 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 2: When another one has. 395 00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 3: A problem, you start getting a little suspens But when 396 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 3: three within a month happened, you got to figure that 397 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,919 Speaker 3: there's some sort of hacking going on, and there's some 398 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,479 Speaker 3: other nefarious things possibly happening, So you got to keep 399 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 3: an eye on that. And again, as far as cybersecurity, 400 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 3: you want to make sure that yours internet and the 401 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 3: stuff that you use are safe and free from some 402 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 3: of these things. And again the old story of you don't, 403 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 3: you know, click on an email that you're not familiar with, 404 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 3: you don't answer text that you're not familiar with, and 405 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 3: so on. Timothy Edgar, a computer science professor at Brown 406 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:36,360 Speaker 3: and an expert on cybersecurity. Cloud Flare is an essential company, 407 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 3: providing services to a fifth of the Internet and handling 408 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 3: literally trillions of requests every day, said the outage was 409 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 3: another alarming example of how dependent we have become on 410 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 3: critical internet infrastructure and how little the government and of course, 411 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 3: got to blame the government, the government, how little they're 412 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 3: doing to stop this. Well, if you're a private company 413 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 3: and you don't want I mean, what do you want 414 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 3: government intervention? You want them sitting in your office and 415 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 3: overseeing everything you do, everything's got to be blamed on 416 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 3: the government when it's the individual companies themselves that are 417 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 3: handling these procedures. So this is just a scapegoat, I think, 418 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 3: as far as this professor is concerned. 419 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 2: So we'll ignore that. Coming up, we'll get into this. 420 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 3: Appeals court has paused FMCSA's new non domiciled CDL order. 421 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 3: I'm Kevin Gordon, americastruck In Network seven hundred WLW. 422 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 8: News Traffic and Weather News Radio seven hundred WLW, Cincinnati. 423 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 9: A federal panel has blocked Texas's new congressional map.

Earlier this month, Governor Gavin Newsom 432 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 10: led a campaign to change California's congressional map to offset 433 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 10: the expected losses in Texas. Newsome, responding to the Texas ruling, 434 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 10: saying Trump and Greg Abbott played with fire, got burned 435 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 10: and democracy on. 436 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 9: The ruling means Texas probably will have to redraw its 437 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,880 Speaker 9: districts before the next election. 438 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 8: Now, the latest forecast from the Train Heating and Cooling 439 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 8: Weather Center on news radio seven hundred wl W. 440 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 7: Heading for Thursday daybreak.

This story has been bouncing around. 492 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 3: There's been various variations of this story, and of course 493 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 3: it's an evolving story. The FMCSA back on what was 494 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 3: it September the twenty ninth, put through this order trying 495 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 3: to tighten up these non domiciled CDLs and telling these 496 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 3: states that they need to review the process because of 497 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,919 Speaker 3: what we were experiencing as far as the accident with 498 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 3: the illegal alien down there who had, you know, a 499 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 3: CDO license but was not had no English language abilities 500 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 3: and so when you're talking about the English Language proficiency exam, 501 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 3: he should not have been able to get a CDL, 502 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 3: but he was down in Florida, he was from California, 503 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,639 Speaker 3: caused that accident down there, doing an illegal U turn 504 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 3: by the way, killing three people. Then last month we 505 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 3: had that fellow that was driving down the freeway in 506 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 3: California and was on drugs or intoxicated or under the influence, 507 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 3: didn't stop, didn't break, just plowed into the back end 508 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 3: of these cars called a caused a fiery crash there 509 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:53,120 Speaker 3: on the freeway, and he too had no English language 510 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 3: proficiency or could identify signs, couldn't even communicate with the 511 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 3: officers investigating that particular accident. Fortunately there was a you know, 512 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 3: a dashboard camp that caught all of it. And so 513 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 3: in the wake of that, trying to you know, going 514 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 3: back to April, realizing that for years the truckings associations 515 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:18,959 Speaker 3: had been talking about the dumping of or the CDLs 516 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 3: being issued to a numerous illegal aliens and ones that 517 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,880 Speaker 3: were not had the English language proficiency or coming out 518 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 3: of some of these cd mills where they actually weren't 519 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 3: even getting the training necessary but they were out on 520 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 3: the road. This has been you know, this has been 521 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 3: talked about for a number of years. Well, in April, 522 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 3: Trump put through the executive order that needed to tighten 523 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 3: this up. Sean Duffy came out with an order that 524 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 3: by June the twenty fifth, that this implementation should go 525 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 3: into effect, that FMCSA should now start using the English 526 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 3: language proficiency the lack thereof as a reason to put 527 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 3: somebody out of service, and in order to tighten these 528 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 3: non domiciled CDL licenses that have been granted. Then we 529 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 3: had the accidents in August and so on, and so 530 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 3: they put forth this mandate that, okay, as of September 531 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 3: the twenty ninth, you need to start reviewing all of 532 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 3: your services and with your individual licensing bureaus. And if 533 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 3: you don't comply, we're going to start with holding highway 534 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 3: funds and whatever from these organizations. And so again, when 535 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 3: you're looking at accidents happening, people getting killed on the 536 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 3: highways and so on, they go ahead and put forth 537 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 3: this mandate or this regulation and said that, you know, 538 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:43,480 Speaker 3: we need to implement this. Well, the story here court 539 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:47,719 Speaker 3: blocks new rule limiting which immigrants can get CDLs, and 540 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 3: then we see this story here why in appeals court 541 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 3: pause FMCSA's non domiciled CDL order. However, going back even 542 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 3: before this was done, actually this was done on the 543 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 3: same day that the appellate court. There's a story coming 544 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 3: from the American Transportation Associations and Commercial Vehicle Training Association 545 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 3: in their perspective an editorial, it says safety requires rooting 546 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 3: out CDL mills Trump administration dot our right to go 547 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 3: after dangerous truck driving training schools. So anyway, going to 548 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 3: the Appeals and says why the Appeals Court paused the 549 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 3: FMCSA's non domicild CDL order, Judges say the agency skipped 550 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 3: required steps lacked safety evidence going through this. It says, 551 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 3: the Federal Appeals Court on November thirteenth blocked a new 552 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 3: Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration rule that would sharply restrict 553 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 3: state's ability to issue or renew commercial driver's license to 554 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 3: drivers who live and operate commercial vehicles in the US 555 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 3: but are officially domiciled elsewhere. The decision paused the rule 556 00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 3: that while the legal challenge moves forward, Okay, you have 557 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 3: a situation where somebody is operating a semi eighty thousand 558 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 3: pound vehicle in the United States, but they don't live here, 559 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 3: they are not domiciled in the United States. So first 560 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 3: of all, how do they apply for these licenses? Is 561 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 3: it a situation where they are providing a service that 562 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 3: nobody else can? You know, you get back to this 563 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 3: whole H one B visus where you have certain industries 564 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 3: where we don't have the people with the necessary expertise 565 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 3: to do these jobs. So they granted these specific visas 566 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 3: for people to come in and work in these industries. 567 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 3: And as we've seen, this has been abused like crazy 568 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 3: because bringing people in they will work for cheaper than 569 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 3: cheaper pay than what other people are paying. I've seen 570 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 3: some of these stories crop up in my old profession 571 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 3: being in a recovering accountant. I have seen where some 572 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 3: of the major accounting firms have used this process to 573 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 3: outsource and to bring people in to do audits, taxes, 574 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,240 Speaker 3: and so on, where the you have a wide pool 575 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 3: of people in the United States that are citizens in 576 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 3: the United States, fully capable of doing those jobs, but 577 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 3: if you can replace them with other people that are 578 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 3: work for cheaper We saw a situation where what company 579 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 3: was it I, There was a was it Disney or 580 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 3: it was a major company that they basically told all 581 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 3: their people in the IT department that hey, we're firing you. 582 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 3: We're going to get rid of you, but in the meantime, 583 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 3: we're bringing in your replacements and you need to train 584 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 3: them to do your job. 585 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 2: Now. 586 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 3: They're bringing these people in, obviously for less money than 587 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 3: what they're paying their current staff, but they said you 588 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 3: must train them. If you don't train them, then you 589 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 3: are not going to get your severance package. At the 590 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 3: end of the time. When they actually replace you, and 591 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 3: so you're caught between a rock and a hard place. 592 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 3: You're fully capable of doing that particular job, You've been 593 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 3: doing that job for a number of years, and yet 594 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 3: they found a loophole or tried to figure out some 595 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 3: way of bringing people in that will work for a 596 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 3: cheap and that is just flat out wrong the whole 597 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 3: mental capabilities or the mental What type of a person 598 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 3: that runs is the CEO of a company like that 599 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 3: that will literally push people out the door just to 600 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 3: get a few people in that are little work cheaper 601 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 3: and they're not even citizens in the United States. I 602 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:46,239 Speaker 3: don't understand that rationale. I don't understand that philosophy. And 603 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 3: what a poor example as far as the business world 604 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 3: is concerned, and what these people should do. I mean, 605 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 3: they have no conscience. How did they sleep at night 606 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 3: knowing they do this? But anyway, getting back to this 607 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 3: particular story, judges say that the agency skipped are required steps. 608 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 3: At US Appeals Court for the District of Columbia granted 609 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 3: an emergency an emergency stay, saying that petitioners challenging the 610 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 3: rule met the stringent REQUIREM sure those are stringent requirements 611 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 3: for the stay pending court review.

Judges USh FMCSA's safety rationale, citing the 682 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:08,440 Speaker 3: agency's own data showing non domicile drivers make up five 683 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 3: percent of the CDO holders but about zero point two 684 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:17,479 Speaker 3: percent of fatal crashes. What difference does it make? How 685 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,800 Speaker 3: many fatal one is more than enough? Didn't we haven't 686 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 3: we heard for years if we could just you know, 687 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 3: if we could just save one whale out there in 688 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:30,120 Speaker 3: the wild. You know, we're going to save the whales. Oh, 689 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:34,240 Speaker 3: we got this this what was it? The spotted owl? 690 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,239 Speaker 3: You know, if we can keep just one owl and 691 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 3: keep it from extinction, we've got to go through all 692 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:41,840 Speaker 3: this sort of stuff, you know, when it comes to 693 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 3: human life, apparently that doesn't count as much as it 694 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 3: does spotted owls or whales or whatever. 695 00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 2: But you know, if there's point only point two only 696 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 2: point two. 697 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 3: Percent of the accidents, fatal accidents out there, I'm sure 698 00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 3: that's a big comfort to the people and the family 699 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,919 Speaker 3: members who have died as a result of those accidents. Now, 700 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:01,919 Speaker 3: let's get back to some of the stuff we've talked 701 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 3: about on this program before. We have had the statistics 702 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 3: talking about enforcement. When they talk about, oh, we've got 703 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 3: to do safety enforcement out on the highways. 704 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 2: Okay, what are we going to do. 705 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 3: Oh, well, we're going to do these mandatory pullovers and 706 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 3: we're going to do these this blitz of where we're 707 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:23,240 Speaker 3: going to pull over the the trucks out on the highway, 708 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 3: and we're going to do the inspections and we're going 709 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 3: to crack down there. And yet the government, the sightings 710 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,520 Speaker 3: that they do, they say that, okay, of the accidents, 711 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 3: nine percent of the fatal accidents on the highway involve trucks. 712 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:45,839 Speaker 3: Big word there, involve trucks. Now, of the point of 713 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,959 Speaker 3: the nine percent of the fatal accidents out there involving 714 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:53,879 Speaker 3: trucks that are caused by trucks, there's less than ten 715 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 3: percent of that number that is done. 716 00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,280 Speaker 2: By caused by a truck. 717 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 3: Yet they will have these checkpoints, they will do the 718 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 3: safety checks and all this sort of stuff, but they'll 719 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,640 Speaker 3: ignore the ninety one percent of the people out there 720 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:13,320 Speaker 3: driving other vehicles other than trucks other than the eighteen wheelers. 721 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,959 Speaker 2: They won't, you know, pull over the sedans, the vans. 722 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 3: The pickup trucks, any of that sort of stuff to 723 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 3: do safety checks on them. Ninety one percent of the 724 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,640 Speaker 3: population gets ignored, but we're going to pick on the 725 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 3: nine percent simply because I guess they're a bigger target. 726 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 3: And yet when it comes to this, oh, well, if 727 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 3: it's only point two percent, well, I guess we can 728 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:35,800 Speaker 3: write that off and those fatal crashes they just don't matter. 729 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 3: Panel signals the rule may be arbitrary and capricious because 730 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 3: FMCSA did not adequately explain expected safety benefits or account 731 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 3: for drivers reliance on existing CDL rules. Now again we're 732 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 3: talking about a change. Does anybody when the EPA goes 733 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 3: out and they do some sort of a mandate out 734 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:01,839 Speaker 3: there without discussing with the companies, is that, well, can 735 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 3: you comply with this? No, we'll just put this EPA 736 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,920 Speaker 3: regulation out In the past, I might add that they 737 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 3: put out this mandate and if it's violated, well then 738 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 3: we'll just do billions of dollars like they've done in 739 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 3: terms of the CAFE standards with the car manufacturers that 740 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,719 Speaker 3: if you don't meet these quality standards or the mileage 741 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 3: per gram for your fleet, that will find you billions 742 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,360 Speaker 3: and billions of dollars even though you attempt to comply 743 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 3: with that, but the technology isn't there for you to 744 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 3: do that. So it's just a money grab by the 745 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,400 Speaker 3: federal government at that point. So they don't get to 746 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,840 Speaker 3: what can anybody stand up and say, well, you know 747 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 3: you're putting through these arbitrary and capricious regulations, but oh no, 748 00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 3: that's okay because we're trying to clean the air. We're 749 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 3: trying to save the planet, and that's okay. But if 750 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 3: you're trying to save lives, now that's not so much 751 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:54,840 Speaker 3: so anyway, Sean Duffy, the Department of Transportation Secretary, is 752 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 3: vowing to fight this course pause of the non CDL license. 753 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:02,320 Speaker 3: And it is amazing when you go through this and 754 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 3: you talk about how a lot of these things are 755 00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:11,360 Speaker 3: done where these CDL licenses are granted to people that then. 756 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:12,840 Speaker 2: They overstay their visa. 757 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:15,840 Speaker 3: So there ought to be something, and we've talked about 758 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 3: this on this program, where if the license is issued, 759 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 3: it needs to be in correspondence with the work permit. 760 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 3: If a work permit expires, then the CDL license should 761 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 3: expire as well not be available after that. And what 762 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,480 Speaker 3: is interesting too is that the industry itself that is 763 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 3: involved in this. You have the perspective that was written 764 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:44,800 Speaker 3: an editorial written by what's the guy's name, Andrew polla 765 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 3: Koff and Chris Spear. Now Andrew Pollakoff is Commercial Vehicle 766 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 3: Training Association and Chris Spear is the American Trucking Associations. 767 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 3: Now we've had the story in the past talking about 768 00:42:56,239 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 3: Chris Spear and the American Trucking Association getting criticized heavily 769 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 3: for starting the whole narrative that we don't have enough 770 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 3: CDL licenses, there's a driver's shortage, which then led to 771 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 3: the influx of a lot of these people who from 772 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 3: foreign countries coming in and obtaining CDL licenses. So, in 773 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 3: a certain instance, ATA has kind of created this issue 774 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 3: according to a lot and getting criticism from people that 775 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 3: have initiated this, but even they recognize the fact that 776 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 3: this needs to be tightened up. According to this cbtas 777 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 3: Andrew Polakoff and ATAS Chris Spear argue that fraudulent commercial 778 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 3: driver training schools are endangering motorists and that recent Trump 779 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 3: administration enforcement actions mark a needed federal crackdown these unscrupulous operators, 780 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,440 Speaker 3: which again issue these fraudulent CDLs, which is some of 781 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 3: the things that they're trying to crack down on. As 782 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:56,440 Speaker 3: far as the Trump administration is concerned. These unscrupulous operators 783 00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 3: just don't cheat students out of money. They jeopardize the 784 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 3: safety of American motorists by certifying drivers just two or 785 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 3: three day courses and sending them behind the wheel of 786 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 3: an eighty thousand pound truck. That's not training, its negligence, 787 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 3: and it's putting lives at risk. And so they are 788 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,359 Speaker 3: calling an action to this and saying that this action 789 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:21,760 Speaker 3: needs to be done. And yet we've got the courts, 790 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 3: and I don't know where these courts are coming from. 791 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 3: You would think that they would rely on the experts 792 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 3: rather than the particular petitioner. It seems like a petitioner 793 00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:34,240 Speaker 3: comes in there and says, well, we want an emergency stay. 794 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 3: They pay more attention to them than whether or not 795 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 3: the driving public is at risk out there. And this 796 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 3: is something that needs to be checked and it needs 797 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 3: to be fought, and of course the administration will be 798 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 3: fighting this as far as they can. Take a look 799 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 3: real quick at at oil and gas price before we 800 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:52,839 Speaker 3: scoot out the door. 801 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 2: Here. 802 00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:55,919 Speaker 3: West Text Intermedia CREWED currently is at fifty nine dollars 803 00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:59,239 Speaker 3: below sixty dollars a barrel, fifty nine dollars and thirty 804 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,319 Speaker 3: nine cents, down a dollar thirty five from yesterday. So 805 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 3: just since January, West Texas Intermediate CRUED is down seventeen 806 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 3: dollars and fifty cents a barrel, or twenty three percent. 807 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:14,360 Speaker 3: Brent crude is at sixty three forty nine dollars, forty 808 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 3: less than yesterday, down sixteen dollars and forty one cents 809 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 3: in January, or a twenty one percent decrease. Taking a 810 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 3: look at the gasoline prices really quick across the board, 811 00:45:25,800 --> 00:45:30,839 Speaker 3: gasoline currently nationwide is three dollars nine cents. But then 812 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 3: when you compare that back to twenty twenty again, when 813 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:36,240 Speaker 3: we were energy independant for the first time since nineteen 814 00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 3: forty nine, it'd be interesting to look at that, and 815 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:43,280 Speaker 3: you know, we're ninety cents higher than that now. If 816 00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:47,040 Speaker 3: oil prices are down twenty three percent, I would expect 817 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 3: to have seen gas prices being down at least ten 818 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 3: percent or fifteen percent, and so if that were the case, 819 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 3: gasoline should be down somewhere around two dollars and sixty 820 00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 3: three cents a gallon nationwide.
