Wish we could. None of the West Coast States are “Right to Work”. In order to work on the docks, they must belong to the ILWU.

Yea, but when you make that much you have to spread the wealth a bit or they don’t let you make that much. And I’m not talking union dues here.

Wait until the Panama Canal expansion is done... then you'll see a west coast port slowdown.

Sidenote investing tip: BNSF and UP derive a lot of revenue moving shipping containers full of cheap Chinese plastic fake vomit and x-ray glasses east on doublestack trains.

I recall seeing an article here on FR a couple of days ago that indicated the Panama Canal project was millions of dollars over budget.
