    I don’t think Biden will intervene in this case. It’s one company that’s going on strike, not a whole system of transportation. The economic impact will be significant but limited, as there are others that will pick up what slack they can.

    Of course, this means that to preserve the right to strike we need to break companies up so they’re not too big to fail.

      I can tell you right now no can pick up the slack fedex maybe can take an extra 600k in the their system. Put it in perspective that’s the normal for the memphis night sort. It going to be very ugly.
