A comment on a post on TS regarding the possible (probable) rail strike leads me to believe this is planned, coordinated, and intended to nationalize railways (controlled economy)

"Totally out of the blue, I’ve been getting posts about nationalizing the railroads on my Facebook feed. This started two days ago. And now makes sense."

theory: Government plans to seize and Nationalize Railroads, citing inability to solve the Strike Issue. They make it a National Emergency and force rail workers back to work without Union agreement. Now Gov. controls a huge part of supply chain.

ransomnote: The White House does seem to be stressing the critical nature of a railroad strike as if to justify nationalization. Here's a Washington Post article and quotes. Note they pretend Biden is 'on it' as he calls the railroads and presses for them to make a deal, but no mention of the fact that if a strike threatens water supply and heating, the gov can prevent a strike.

Freight rail strike threatens supply chains, prompting White House planning

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/09/13/rail-strike-railroad-shutdown-biden/


"A national railroad strike could derail critical deliveries of chlorine to wastewater treatment plants and coal to utility plants, among other potentially crippling disruptions, prompting senior White House aides on Tuesday to review contingency options for protecting the nation’s drinking water and energy supply."

ransomnote:  Got Drinking Water?

I have wondered if the gov would commandeer other shipping and transportation outlets to facilitate their efforts to become the distribution hub to those Americans who are most obedient. That would put UPS and Greyhound (etc.) under gov control to keep supplies and people moving during a railroad strike.

 
"White House aides are looking at how to ensure essential products carried by rail — such as food, energy and key health products — could still reach their destinations, even in the event of a strike. Senior officials have looked at how highways, ports and waterways can be used to offset any damage caused, while also talking to top officials in the shipping, freight and logistics industries."
