Pro-union mandate at Chicago O’Hare threatens to disrupt cargo flights – Freight Waves

The city of Chicago has threatened to revoke the licenses of contractors that process cargo for airlines at O’Hare airport if they don’t open to union organizers, putting two-thirds of cargo traffic at this major international hub at risk of being stranded and stressing supply chains for an undetermined period.

It sounds like the powers that be in Chicago are hell bent on installing idiotic policies just like their communist brethren in California. And some still wonder why people are fleeing the state that is Ill.

This is just one more Kiss of Death for Illinois. More and more business will flee the Unfriendly skies of Illinois.

Unions can’t attract members by the virtues of their membership. Instead they run to the evil Democrat politicians to coerce or legislate forced membership. The greed of the union scum is bottomless. Right-to-work and Janus will eventually rush the union parasites into oblivion but in the meantime Illinois Democrats will enable them in exchange for their bribes.

Every facet of the state seems hell bent on driving existing businesses out (along with their workers) and dissuading new companies from relocating. So sad to see.

Here’s a better idea…

Just put SWA in charge of the freight processing…

What could go wrong…?

Don Don’t do it, let the city shut down their businesses. Watch the shite storm that will follow. Getting elected in Chicago or anywhere in Illinois is a sure sign that the elected person is corrupt or incompetent.
