It's so sad that some didn't get the education they needed, or haven't organized with their fellow workers to effectively negotiate a better deal for themselves.... and now have to "whine" about how much better off other folks are than they are?
And, of course, possibly because of that lack of education (especially on this subject), some appear to confuse highly paid ILWU port workers, with the "independent" contractor and un-represented draymen, who are not making anything like that kind of money.
Meanwhile, even the new, but small, BNSF yard being built at POLA-POLB, will not be able to accommodate this new "outbound" traffic, unless it is properly blocked for on-dock transfers, instead of relying on drayage.
