Once again, reading things that are not there. I’m saying that there *are* Cummins engines sitting languishing at dockside because of this, not that all of them are. Last I heard (I do contract IT work with a Cummins partner in Texas, shouldn’t be too hard to figure out who) they’re looking at rerouting the remaining Japan contract engines to Mexico to be shipped out that way. Oh, and the US plant that was going to be saved by making those new 5.0s? Yeah, they’re apparently having second thoughts about that too - the idiot union dock workers are now quite nicely making the case to just consolidate production of the 5.0 down in Mexico with the 6.7 that’s already being made down there for Dodge. More American jobs gone in that case - happy now?
Anyone paying attention would have contingency plans.
Anytime the Scum at PMA want to come to an agreement with the ILWU they can offload their crapware. If the racists at COSCO want to pay what American workers need then no problems. Absent that, they can paddle their Junks right back to China.
Maybe you can get an IT job with them, Bubba! I'm sure the State owned national flag carrier is just DESPERATE to hire you as soon as you can immigrate to the Vibrant Hub known as Shanghai!
Oh wait...you can't. They don't take immigrants, especially if you're um..Caucasian.
Tell ya what, get some surgery on the eyes, use a little skin color cream, change yer name to Wu Chang Spike, and who knows! They may take to ya!
Good Luck! Once yer there, you can blame all those Evil Union Guys back in the Poor Ol' USA who just didn't learn who their Masters were.
Free traitors use manufacturing layoffs in the USA defending a union strike port closure, how ironic( and disingenuous) is that? It’s like Hitler defending concentration camps because the makers of Zyklon B need jobs. We have a 1/4 Trillion dollar annual trade deficit so who is the real loser? Gee Walmart may need to find a USA manufacturer for their junk, what a shame.
