It is a completely idiotic move. Butthead will be giving the money to people who agree with his mis-management of the Supply Chain.

The Teamsters will really make out on this boondoggle

You nailed it. Unions will get dang near all of it. Then they’ll say, “Thanks for the snack! What’s for supper?”

“The Teamsters will really make out on this boondoggle”

Congratulations! You have connected the dots.

The entire process is a recruiting tool for the liberals using the unions to grow and prosper.

The Teamsters at the ports are providing just enough product delivery to keep their contracts operating at a minimum. By doing this they are slowing the chain movement and trying to justify more bodies to be hired. And at Long Beach if you tack on Newsome’s requirement to sterilize all their equipment between shifts, the state government is assisting the problem.

And to tack on to that, thus being a recruiting tool, if they hire additional help, it is within the AFL-CIO contracts that they can’t be laid off without continuing to pay them for life. Sweet deal, huh?

So what’s the incentive to push the envelope? Add to that most of the shipping locations are either partly or totally owned by China or Russia. Same with Tacoma and Seattle in my area and they have the same “problems.”(?)
