Similarities continue between today and from the days of Nam. Today, bankruptcies among truckers have increased by a factor of three. What is happening to so many rigs confiscated by creditors? A profitable market for exporting rigs is growing. Back in the days created by Nam, that same market for exporting construction equipment (ie Caterpillar 988 payloaders) from America was also so profitable. When America goes into recession, a first thing to suddenly get exported is its machines.
