Seems a strike is coming to East Coast Ports

It is when it could upset the entire economy.

Then pay the workers. Easy fix

So force the companies to give them what they want?

I'm not sure that's as easy as you think it is.

Negotiate. Give workers a seat at the table. Don't treat them like slaves as they have been.

They are negotiating.

But what can a president do?

Nothing. No official should step in....ever.

You indeed are. If he said he wouldn't do it, that's the outcome they want.

So the thoughts and prayers comment made no sense.

NYT is pay walled. Quote?

Sigh .. already provided it to you in Post #33.

That wage is lower middle class, in any but the cheapest cities.

44 years of union busting and Reagonomics is coming to a head.

That doesn't seem to be the case ...

Note: GOBankingRates defines middle class incomes as those that are two-thirds to double the median annual income for any state.

And yet ANOTHER Democrat success story ! <sarc>
The price of everything just took another steep increase folks.
And with things ramping up in the Middle East, they just might soon be able to put a "Nuclear War" feather in their hat of tricks and successes.

For all you Union idiots......

We are competing on a global scale. The reality is that American workers are overpaid in relation to the entire global market.
That means America cannot compete on a global scale.
That means no one will buy US goods on a global scale.
That means American GDP will decline.
That means MORE lost jobs.
That means America loses.

And that means Democrats WIN! (or so they truly believe...as if they can just magically print their way to sustainable wealth)

No american should be working for the same wages overseas workers make. That is not a wage one could even barely get by on.
