$1200 A Day Union Workers Force Shutdown Of 29 West Coast Ports

$1200 A Day Union Workers Force Shutdown Of 29 West Coast Ports - breitbart.com

Excerpt from this article:

"The Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) announced that loading and unloading operations at all 29 West Coast ports would temporarily be suspended this weekend in response to union slowdowns that brought freight movements at the ports to a near standstill.PMA members stated that they cannot afford the almost $1,200 per day cost to employ International Longshore and Warehouse Union members to do little work."

---------------------------------------------------- 

Here's an idea: why don't we fire all these $1200-a-day" union workers and hire some illegals to take their place? Maybe we could get them to work for less (say, $600 a day?)
