I think chaos is the byproduct more than the plan itself, there's no singular point of control and so everything is just a piece on a chessboard, the chaos is a result of the fog of war.

I've been trying to determine why this piece might be in play to get a gauge on how long it might last and therefore its impact. Saw today that the union was offered a 50% pay increase and automation protections and it was a non-starter. Harold Dagget, the union boss, seems like he's out of central casting and I'm guessing on a regular day would probably be a Trump guy. No doubt in my mind at this point that this its all staged.

But, why stage it? Some top-line possibilities:

Pure Optics:

The low hanging fruit would be to make the Biden-Harris admin look inept, but that would be beating a dead horse. This could force them to invoke Taft-Harley, which would further erode democrat support by unions, and could even set the stage for a SCOTUS ruling or congressional action in the next administration.

Security:

Increasing likelihood for WW3 to move away from the shadows go overtly hot would necessitate shutting down some ports to concentrate the security apparatus around fewer (more critical) ports. A union shutdown achieves this with added levers of deception. I would think the Baltimore bridge incident is not unrelated given its naval importance.

Monetary:

Less imports means less dollar exports, this could have any number of effects on the global financial system and domestic monetary velocity (inflation/deflation). Could also justify firing up the money printer.

Reality is its probably some combination of the 3, nothing is random, everything has meaning. 🍿

Global mass murder is undoubtedly the plan
