In recent weeks, the truck and bus industries have been vocal in criticizing the USDOT’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s (FMCSA) slowness in reacting to, and adjusting, its 17-month-old Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) program which uses safety performance data to stratify motor carrier’s safety risk.

McDonalds Restaurants Earns - Massive profits and part of the reason is cash flow. I love their business model; customers order first, pay second and get food last. No invoicing, no waiting for the check to arrive and hoping it will clear the bank.
