They start at 20 dollars an hour and peak at under 40 bucks. What exactly is absurd about asking for that raise? They hey simply haven’t been given one that matches the work they do and the locations dock workers are forced to live, which are a the most expensive places to live in America around the coast lines. What’s absurd is that the average low IQ member of the public unironically thinks these people make 200 Grand a year “on average” which is ludicrous. Just because YOU work at a job in which you accept being abused, doesn’t mean you need to knock others for getting their worth. I suggest you do the same, or at the very least be upset at the big dogs at the top of the chain, not those making 20 something an hour. You do the math, 20-37 dollars an hour, while having to live in NYC, after taxes. That’s a laughable salary for what is supposed to be a career.
On what planet should long shoreman be making 20-37 an hours at top pay in 2025 while living in the most expensive city in America? Notice how they keep saying 70% without telling you what it’s 70% of… east coast long shoreman are merely asking what the west coast ones currently are getting paid.
There is not much diversity on that picket line. Something tells me we won't be seeing AOC out their with them in a show of solidarity, and this strike will be crushed rather quickly
Look a peaceful protest, palestine protesters take notes
70% raises come on now!!!! That’s a bit much

AOC Socialist crowd will be yapping away.
APM in Elizabeth NJ (formerly known as sealand) is overwhelming majority a black pier, and its many more times the size of this red hook pier.
