Low brokerage offers for Owner operators

Since this quarentine stuff all around and the coronavirus, brokers have been low balling on loads for owner operators. I think the fear of not having work has made a lot of truckers think they need to get what they can while they can. So many are accepting the low offers and not refusing the low ball offers. I think if everyone would stop accepting those low tenders, then the rates would go back up. Truckers are Essential and needed during this time and its a lot of the huge store chains that are needing us. In most cases these are billion dollar and multi million dollar companies that need their products moved, and many of which that got the funding from SBA for disaster loans while the "little guys(small businesses)" suffer. Its your truck, your, time, and your family you have to provide for. If we can get the word out in enough forums maybe the negotiations when booking loads will be more fair.

Any thoughts?
