    October surprise. I am willing to handle the additional financial burden of the strike if it means Trump retakes the White House.

      He wants to impose massive tarriffs so you'll be taking the financial burden the entire time he's in office. It's been estimated it would cost an additional $4000/year for the ave household.

    The United States has not recovered from the supply chain problems during Covid. We have a housing shortage. We need building materials for the catastrophic biblical event that just happened. The fact that the government won't step in I find that to be disgusting, irresponsible, selfish, narcissistic, and other words that I can't think of right now, I live in a country that hates children in the elderly, and that's a shame because no country can recover from anything who hates children in the elderly

      Or (just bare with me for a sec,) it was precisely the over abundance of government regulations that has caused this. So the likelihood that they can fix it without further causing “unforeseen” consequences is zero. Unless of course you mean the government deregulating in which point you would correct. The other problem we have is incentive structures. For example, two of the greatest tragedies of no longer incentivizing the family unit, is families no longer takes care of their families. So they know think it’s someone else’s responsibility to; perform the act and (depending on the person,) pay for the act. This is typically where small community comes in. But small communities have been disincentivized too. And the 2nd is te vanishing birth rate. Where we won’t even have enough ppl to physically care youth or the dying.

      The thing people don't understand and increase in pay from the strike will be negated by the inflation it will cause. Dropping of interest rate is already going to make inflation worse, but they want to add accelerate to an already burning fire lmao lol.

    These workers are asking for a 77% raise. That is insane. They already make 80k, and with overtime make upwards of $200k.

    Most imports are over abundance of goods that are already in the warehouse and storages so this strike will not be devastating but will hamper growth. America needs to ween off trades and goods from other countries like China and start building and producing. This strike will have a detrimental effect on the economy so depended on foreign nations. All that money and weapons that went over seas needs to go back in the pockets of businesses and farmers. U.S. Government is a impediment and a parasite to the American economy and stifles growth.

      Americans don't need Christmas trees and decorations or holiday crap made in China. They need a strong economy without government intervention and regulations. Also food and apparel made in U.S.A. is better and helps keep jobs in America.

    I wonder if the union is thinking for the long run because this strike just might push the port owners to go to automation and if they do that it will be less workers and automation don't strike.
