I'll just say. As a retiree from middle management at UPS, i will state that i'm happy about the reported longshoreman agreement. I dealt with many UPS contracts as a local chairman with the Teamsters and then on the company side. The Longshoreman deserve the increase.....but automation is coming so plan accordingly.

Have we ever seen a number for the obscene profit that the group that pays the dockworkers made over say the last 5 years? That's a shady/foreign crowd that even "the Google" won't help me figure out? Seems like the shipping rates and profit must have some sort of analysis. I will say thanks in advance if you can let me know how much profit was earned by the labor payors vs the labor doers? Seems like a simple question that I have not been able to get the information on? Someone here must know how to get the number.

Saw a right wing conspiracy theory today that the ILA is being paid off to strike by Democrats to cause an economic crisis that will then be leveraged as an excuse to indefinitely suspend the election because they know Trump is gonna win 🤡

Hmmm, turns out this wasn't true. Color me shocked.

Interesting that they keep coming up with theories of ways to circumvent the election, yet the dems haven't shown any intent to not follow the normal process, while we have Jan 6th as evidence of which party is willing to do unprecedented things to gain and maintain power.
