Truck Drivers Are Now Working for Peanuts Because of Surging Diesel Fuel Prices

A fuel supplier called Mansfield Energy is now taking steps to prepare for a diesel shortage on the east coast of the US. The company said in a press release, high prices will bring demand back down enough that it balances with limited supply. They expect the New England power grid in all likelihood is going to have blackouts in the middle of this winter because they don't have the natural gas necessary.
