    • I’m not a Union man but I have been in a couple in my 55 yrs of working an I will leave just one observation. The working conditions and pay has declined for the average worker since the 70’s and the decline of the Unions.

    • Brian, in Blue States the Government has replaced the function of unions on many items such as wages, benefits and working conditions which were the major platforms of the early unions. Grew up in Miners and Construction unions family.

  1. We can only hope that those most adversely affected by a strike-related shortage are those who voted for Prop 3.

  2. Nothing threatens the food supply like launching a war that has choked off the world’s biggest fertilizer shipping corridor for eight months. If you think groceries cost more now, you ain’t seen nothing yet.

  3. John, your TDS has nothing to do with this article. Iran will gladly bring over your fertilizer with Sharia law if you’d like. I assume you voted for the mess that is to come, eh comrade? DSA, all the way, I believe is your motto?

    • No I didn’t Josh vote for that mess, Josh, or this one for that matter. But I do remember Trump saying hundreds of times at campaign rallies, “No more wasteful regime change wars.” That was MAGA, in case you forgot. And if you aren’t going to hold him to that standard, you are not MAGA.

  4. John, I’ll be honest, man will always let you down. We are instructed to put our faith in no man, but in God alone. Trumps craziness is mild compared to the communism coming. I say to you sir prepare, head the warning.

    • That old bugaboo “communism” — we’ve heard it for decades, just like we keep hearing from the Left about fearing the “Far Right nationalists.” With every election, each party deploys their fear-of-the-other campaigns to keep you on your party’s plantation. Meanwhile, both parties love war, censorship, inflation, running up the national debt, more and more surveillance, and protecting the Epstein class. All we get in the end is the lesser of two evils. That’s why I no longer participate.
