Those wacky truckers

As anyone in the Harrisburg area would have noticed this morning, the Truck Drivers are coming into town to protest high diesel prices. Without even addressing their proposal (a cut in the state diesel tax), has anyone pointed out the absurdity of protesting high fuel taxes by driving. That is like protesting the price of cardboard and markers by making a bunch of signs.

A better concept would have been to come to Harrisburg on bicycles and rickshaws loaded with goods. But then again, I would choose to drive as well.
