On the waterfront
Reading this story about how close we are to a collapse in our ports, about how there are 434 thousand tons of food waiting to be unloaded, about how there aren’t enough trucks to haul all this stuff around, and about how dock workers are going to be asked to work on Sundays, makes me think: there has never been a better time for a dock workers strike in Venezuela.
I mean, if I was a union boss for dock workers or teamsters, I would be planning a bit of trouble just about now, don’t you think?
