Check out who controls the ports.

Psssst: In a lot of our major ports, it’s not Americans.

That’s the real threat.

The Luddites didn't succeed 200+ years ago! Longshoremen have wages most can only dream of! They will have far more soon!

Higher pay ==> More automation.

Guaranteed.

Ironically giving them more money will speed up automation as it will increasingly become cost effective over human labor.
