Well, howdy there, Internet People Lidsboo again. So today we are once again going to talk about

the supply chains and what happens if the train stops because there is a potential railroad strike brewing.

It could start as soon as Friday, but that seems a little unlikely.

We have talked in the past about what happens if the truck stop.

The unions believe that this is them putting the shippers, the consumers, and the supply chain at risk in an effort to pressure the federal government to step in and make sure there isn't a strike.

Now, Biden can't stop the strike.

There's a thing called a cooling off period, but he already used it. the to act. I think that's what management might be kind of banking on right

before a midterm in a period where labor sentiment is running high, I'm not so sure that Congress is

going to push that through, certainly not always pay that is

once again as we talked about before it's not always pay that is triggering
