[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the rich DC residents are angry that skilled dock workers elate earning more than Conchita, their maid from Guatemala. I hope that tough union guy chokes out your Whole Foods and forces you to eat processed foods for a few months.[/quote] Dock workers work harder and do things as important as any lawyer or desk jockey. Only they risk their lives more.[/quote] Thanks for the platitude, but not any real substance. The head, Harold Dagget, is a Trump supporter about to retire. He’s corrupt as hell. Read about it. This strike is to help Trump and dagget is doing that. Also, automated ports are 90% more efficient. It’s inevitable and the rest of the world is doing it successfully. This is one thing we really need to automate so we can have efficient supply chains. We need ports to run 24/7. There are national security considerations. We do need to inspect the cranes and ensure the software is safe. But there are just too many goods movement considerations. 90% of all our goods come by ship. We can’t have these unions arguing for a 77% pay raise and complete non-automation. It’s insane. It’s selfish and it’s what they are doing. This strike inflicts maximum pain. They’ll concede to these strong arm demands. They will relent because Biden is demanding they do. Meanwhile ports will build automated terminals where they can that can skirt these dock workers.
