If history repats itself todays minimal trucker strike is just a call to arms by USA truckers. While President Bush is on his European Borat tour American truckers strike the First blow on the U.S. Econopmy and Politicans. Fed up with expenditures in diesal fuel truckers launch today a strike.
If only 40% of American over the road truckers were to shut down their 18 wheelers for 7 days Politicans would have no choice; to listen after breaking into the govt sea rations to eat lunch in capital hill.
Fuel,gas,oil,food stuffs , farm fertilizers for planting crops.etc..., and other commodities if properly timed would skyrocket consumer prices and shortages in USA. Anyone wnat to guess when President Bush cuts short his Borat world tour???

You do realize that Borat was a film made to make fun of (some) Americans, right?

somehow the idea persist that the US governement or others could do anything against high oil price.

Oil reserves are not infinite. Better look for cars using less. And avoid driving empty (such as in just on time transport)..the economy will rectify it. But at a much higher oil price.

I'm not advocating that they should, but they can do something about it. The value of the dollar isn't independent of monetary or fiscal policy.

Agreed. I just don't think that this protest is for a abstarct concept.
