That ILA guy is going to lose. He might get a contract but he has sealed the fate of a lot of dock workers by being an asshole about it. If and WHEN the word gets out that he is helping shut down the commerce of the US over 2250 jobs where the worker gets paid 39 bucks an hour, he is going to come across as a total asshole and that will paint all dock workers with a very dark brush. He also can't stand in the way of automation. Automation has won in every single contest it has ever had with manual workers. Remember, John Henry died at the end of of the contest with the automatic steel driver. The steel driver went on to drive the same amount of steel the next day. John Henry was dead.
