Big Blitz Posted October 1 Posted October 1 Costco - empty. First hand report. Go get your toilet paper asap. Full circle. Trump left office under this situation caused by Covid lunacy. I hope this serves as a reminder to all - yes I know it’s bc of the strike. Point remains. 1
K D Posted October 1 Posted October 1 I ordered from Amazon this morning. When you gotta go you gotta go! There's a lot of Kamala supporters in here that are full of crap so they should get to the store asap 2
ScotSHO Posted October 1 Posted October 1 This is trump's fault, we just have to wait a couple of days for the MSM to tell our resident 'tards, then they'll lecture us shortly there after. 3
Roundybout Posted October 1 Posted October 1 ***** these longshoremen. Kicking and screaming into the age of automation. They cry about “backbreaking work” then refuse to use technology to make it astronomically easier. I can’t stand rent seeking losers. Plus, the union head is buddy buddy with Trump. 1 1

Who do you dislike more - longshoremen or farmers? As a government employee, are you a union member?
RiotAct Posted October 1 Posted October 1 Kamala can fix this - she just needs to be voted in first on November 5th. 4 1

The Frankish Reich Posted October 3 Posted October 3 I'm a supporter of unions in general. But that doesn't mean I can't be critical of unions that overplay their hands and damage the American economy. While everyone focuses on base hourly pay, that doesn't tell nearly the whole story. From the WSJ: https://www.wsj.com/articles/striking-dockworkers-are-top-earnerswhen-they-work-17c5f7e9?mod=hp_lead_pos8 But shipping industry officials say it isn’t uncommon for ILA dockworkers to clear six figures. In the fiscal 2019-20 year, when ILA base pay reached $36, more than half of 3,726 dockworkers at the New York-New Jersey port earned over $150,000, according to a report by the port’s regulator. Some 665 dockworkers that year earned more than $250,000. For longshore workers on the West Coast, who work under a different union and a single pay system, the base hourly rate last year was $52.85. The Pacific Maritime Association says the average, full-time dockworker that year earned almost $233,000. Other blue-collar jobs pale in comparison. The nationwide average annual wage for a crane operator, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, is a little over $68,000. The average machinist at aircraft manufacturer Boeing in the Pacific Northwest makes around $75,000. And demands to halt automation are just preposterous Luddite fantasies. And back to the point: https://www.newsweek.com/port-strike-update-panic-buying-toilet-paper-1963037 Yeah, no objective need to panic buy. But these things are self-fulfilling prophecies. In other words, I went to Costco and bought the big-ass 30 roll pack yesterday.

Roundybout Posted October 4 Posted October 4 Wouldnt be surprised if this bunch of rent-seeking losers was in cahoots with Donny. Wouldn’t be the first time he torpedoed a political agreement for his own gain.

Biden is Mentally Fit Posted October 4 Posted October 4 He doesn’t know much about what he did today but he negotiated the hell out of that labor strike. Hail Brandon. God bless this incredible man!
