Boeing should’ve paid the 40% and then started investing in the 2nd 737 production facility in TX.
But here we are. Losing $125M per day instead.

They wanted Biden to use the Taft Hartley act to infringe on the dockworkers rights, instead they got a tentative agreement because as they said the record profits of the shipping industry left plenty of room for workers to get fair pay. Biden picked a side and it was the right side, the hard working dockworkers that lubricate the American economy. The industry wanted the administration to do their bidding and instead Biden agreed that their demands were fair and weren’t going to let them win especially when the gulf between the dockworkers and industry demands was so small. The industry wanted 51% and the dockworkers wanted 71%
I do think that this is way different than the railroad strike where railroad workers have always had a limited right to strike and the gulf was massive and railroad profits are relatively small and the issues were more complicated
The dockworkers president met with trump, if trump was in power he would have punished them for such a personal transgression whereas Biden doesn’t punish labor for their advocacy

I’m jealous of their militant union to be honest. The eastern US is probably the last part of the world with unions worth a single damn.

What a great tactic. Show the states how important your job is. Cause panic, instant/serious discussion, and negotiations.

turns out when billions of dollars depend on a group of people, they should get a cut of that.
