So, been reading about the possible railroad worker strike starting Friday, and while I’ve got some essentials stockpiled, just wondering if anyone here with logistics knowledge knows what goods will be most impacted if this strike happens?

You may want to do a little research on this manufactured crisis…who owns the major railroads? What have they been doing lately? Example:limiting/stopping fertilizer transport…how many rail cars do you see sitting idle along rail sidings? The unions, in this case, are not completely to blame. The railroads have been creating their own crisis for quite a while now.
Berkshire Hathaway, Statestreet Capital, and Vangard are major share holders in almost all major railroad companies in North America. Other foreign investment houses also have major stakes in U.S railroads.
Buffet also purchased how many barrels when it was sub zero $. Buffet’s got a LOT to do with this crisis. BTW…why so angry?
Didn’t intend to sound condescending - sorry about that. I won’t argue that unions suck, but they’re not solely responsible for this mess…I wouldn’t even put them in the top 50%.
Wow. Kinda sensitive, aren’t you? How many train Engineers can move the train without being a member of the union? And yet you’re going after the union members as opposed to the mafia bosses who run the unions. Huh.
Interesting.
