Sounds great....then you can tax their profits at 80% and use that to fund a UBI for all the displaced workers. I'm sure everyone would be in favor of automation if everyone benefitted from it

[@relentlessprofanity]

Do have any idea how much that would cost? And how it would take? Oh and make sure those people building those robots are non-union. It would take years and billions of dollars.

Jealous much?

[@nickyrumbles]

With inflation! It’s not just going to be unions striking! I’m sure a lot of Americans are struggling!

[@neriruiz5844]

There's idiots in the comments taking about "this would happen if trump was in office". As if trump could solve anything. There should be massive ceo pay cuts in order to pay for workers raises. There's no ceo that's worth hundreds of millions of dollars in any industry or market whatsoever.

Starting with this Mafia POS Union boss. Check out his mansion, Bentley and yacht. He's as corrupt as all politicians! Total scumbag.

[@bobbobbington3615]

The Union leader has an 80-foot yacht and makes over a hundred times the average salary.

@@bobbobbington3615 Plus his Bentley and massive mansion. He made over 1 million dollars last year. Mafia!

They should pay the workers more. But as far as automation goes, they're not stopping it. It's going to happen everywhere.

It only confirms that the rich need to pay their fair share. Pay them, stop blaming the bottom people.

Shareholders and executives in America don't take cuts, they raise prices. Every dollar they pay out, they charge back to their customers. Corporations and shareholders hip has ruined America

[@judahbrutus]

That Union boss should give up some of his pay, he's a millionaire and has a luxury yacht

[@Dead8Phish]

Weird. You insist on Union "bosses" giving up salary for workers, but completely ignore CEO's with much higher incomes and their refusal to support labor. At least this guy is earning his paycheck, unlike most/all CEO's!

[@RonaldSearfoss]

He's right. That's why Trump would like to get rid of unions. Media should pushing that message. They worked through the pandemic .

Ask the other Major Companies. Not the President. Watch how fast Amazon moves it feet.

[@TheBitterSarcasmOfMs.Anthropy]

This is what you get when you base an entire economic system on global supply chains, cheap overseas labor and resources, massive trade deficits, currency debasement and petty consumerism. Wouldn't it be much smarter to re-shore critical manufacturing in concert with creating a utilitarian economy that is based on needs rather than artificial wants? Such an economy would reduced carbon footprint, reduce dependence on foreign countries and supply chains , improve the quality of lives for people in this country with meaningful and better paying work, end trade imbalances and mitigate currency value debasement.

😊amazing. They say they need more money due to the inflation. How about the rest of us that are struggling as well. The lowest paid shore man makes $80,000 a year. A crane operator makes over $100,000. What about the rest of the country that the average yearly pay is 35,000. The union president has a million + home. a yacht and makes over $750,000 a year. Don’t think inflation is affecting him to much

Wait till us truckers strike. Then the longshoremen will find out how many people their 45k people upset. We all need a liveable wage, but they are asking for ridiculous demands.

I hear that! I have been driving for 20 years going into the ports of NJ/NY everyday! Now Im out of work! Drivers here in NY NJ. will never strike. They are not united. Port work is cut throat! And I dont get a 77% raise! Dont make 81,000 a year! People need to remember that when we out there haulin' containers. The ports need trucker as well. WITHOUT US NO NEED FOR THE ILA! DRIVERS UNITE!
