Arrr, matey! The scallywags of the International Longshoremen’s Association be threatenin’ to abandon ship, stoppin’ all cargo from sailin’ at East and Gulf Coast ports! That’d send the U.S. economy plunderin’ into Davy Jones’ locker! Shiver me timbers, what a ruckus that’d make!
Ahoy, me hearties! Gather 'round, fer I’ve got a tale worthy of the high seas! The scallywags of the International Longshoremen’s Association be thinkin’ of takin’ a mighty long break from their swabbin’ and haulin’ duties. Aye, ye heard right! These salty sea dogs be considerin’ a walkout, and that means the ships at East and Gulf Coast ports be sittin’ dead in the water!Picture it: crates of rum and gold doubloons stranded, just waitin’ fer a band of merry pirates to plunder ‘em! But nay, the longshoremen be holdin’ the keys to the treasure chests, and if they be takin’ their leave, the whole U.S. economy might just keelhaul itself! The merchants be shiverin’ in their boots, thinkin’ of all that booty goin’ nowhere fast!
So, what be causin’ this mutiny on the docks? Rumors fly like cannonballs, and me thinks they be wantin’ a few extra pieces of eight in their pockets! If they do decide to hoist the flag of rebellion, it’ll be a right hullabaloo, I tell ye! So keep yer spyglasses sharp, for we might be in fer one wild ride on the waves of commerce!
