Who’s next? Chicago public school teachers walked off the job today, leaving 350,000 children and their families in the lurch. Close behind, an East Coast and Gulf Coast port shut down could soon follow — wreaking havoc on U.S. retailers and costing American businesses billions in lost revenue and trade. An estimated 14,500 union workers at 14 ports are prepared to tip the economy back into recession over productivity and efficiency rules changes.

Also at issue: Container royalties paid to union members that have morphed into a corrupt system of patronage tied to organized crime.
