Trucking jobs are, as a recent report from the Washington, DC, think tank Global Policy Solutions points out, solid, middle class jobs. The median annual wage for delivery and heavy truck drivers is $34,768, 11 percent higher than the country's median wage.

truckers can live almost anywhere in the country. they can find a place where their $35k income and their wife's $20k income allows them to live large.

plus they get to see America.

no they can't. being a trucker is not in any sense middle class. it's obviously working class, but people have to pretend it's middle class because of the insane flame that america is a middle class country

Truck drivers are in the top third of income. They're actually really well off because they COULD be good nigs instead.

This only further illustrates how out of touch many poasters really are when they complain about making "only" 160k or whatever. There are guys out there raising families on 35k whose positions are being automated out of existence. I supervise cashiers who make 20k per year.

Saw somebody bragging of Facebook today about how Tesla's electric semi will also make it easy to automate truck fleets. Not flame, he referred to drivers as "squishy carbon-based analog computers wedged inside the head of a bipedal primate."

Blowing up 3 million low-skill middle class jobs all at once, with all profits going to capital owners and no obvious replacement jobs, is going to ignite a revolution.

This is probably beside the point. But longer haul truckers get paid like $60k. I think the lower paid ones are local type ones.
