For someone that might have an idea, I'd like to ask a question on fuel conservation. I deliver travel trailers for a living and pulled several down south to the hurricane victims. We delivered to Selma, Alabama/Purvis, Mississippi and Baton Rouge, Louisiana. A few months ago, FEMA paid us again to pull the trailers out of Selma and take them to a military base in Blackstone, Virginia. A few weeks later, we pulled some out of Purvis, Mississippi and took them to Blackstone. Now we're pulling them out of Baton Rouge and taking them to Selma and we also just got a contract to pull some out of Florida and take them to Baton Rouge. These are all new trailers that have never been used and I can't understand why we keep just moving them around in a circle. The taxpayers are paying for every move and millions of gallons of fuel are being wasted. The government is behind all these moves. is it just to keep people working or to use up excess fuel? I don't know the answers but it's just plain stupid.
