For many of us, the pure power of a horse can leave us speechless. Unless you work with these powerful creatures on the daily, you many not realize the strength that they hold — let alone a team of horses. In this video, Working Horses With Jim shows us exactly how strong his working horses can be. When the UPS man had slid off the road into a small ditch, Jim and his horses jumped into action to pull him out with true “horsepower”. Jim used his Percheron draft horses to pull out the UPS driver in a neighbors driveway.

Company lauds Biden plan but opposes higher corporate taxes
Sandy Springs-based UPS said Thursday it opposes a proposed hike in corporate tax rates to pay for President Joe Biden’s infrastructure plan.
Biden last week outlined a $2.3 trillion plan to build up the nation’s infrastructure over the next eight years, for everything from roads, bridges, public transit, electric vehicle charging stations to upgrading sewers, broadband Internet and the power grid.
To help pay for it, Biden proposed increasing the U.S. corporate tax rate to 28% from 21%. The tax rate on corporate profits was cut to 21% from 35% through the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in 2017 under then-President Donald Trump.

The shipment, which came from Mexico and was headed to Hong Kong, was hidden in rugs, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said.
