A bit high but hey if you don't ask you won't get...
"To protect job security, the ILA is demanding a complete ban on the automation of cranes, gates and container movements used in the loading or unloading of cargo."

it's funny you said that. Toilet paper is one of the most resistant products to outsourcing/importing from overseas b/c of it's bulk vs weight ratios.
90% of the TP you use is made here. More you know

While the US imports toilet paper, the majority of toilet paper used in the country is domestically produced. In fact, about 90% of toilet paper purchased in the US is made in the country.

They countered with a 50% pay hike offer. I don't know how these type pay increases don't lead to more automation. I guess in the end it is the rest of us who will undoubtedly get fricked by this.
