Recently I received an e-mail asking me to explain the âvery confusingâ 11/14 hour truck driving rule. As you know, this is the rule which tells the driver how many hours he/she may work, when to break, how long to break, and how many hours of driving that he/she may drive during a 24 hour period.
When President Obama was first inaugurated on Jan. 20, 2009, the debt of the U.S. government was $10,626,877,048,913.08, according to the Treasury Departmentâs Bureau of the Public Debt.
#14 When Barack Obama first took office, an ounce of gold was going for about $850. Today an ounce of gold costs more than $1700 an ounce. #15 Since Barack Obama became president, the size of the U.S. national debt has increased by 44 percent. #16 During Barack Obamaâs first two years in office, the U.S. government added more to the U.S. national debt than the first 100 U.S. Congresses combined.
