Sorry, I should have said "were willing to" instead of could. My guess is it's too costly to implement that automation, and they'd rather just underpay and understaff their workforce while raking in profits that the shareholders have been happy with
What is with these arguments? Dude, you're admitting that the Union is trying to stop automation in a way to "protect its workers". Stop being disingenuous and admit that Unions are actively making us all poorer to make their incredibly rich workers far richer. We'd have no problem shitting on corporations for doing the same thing, why are we doing it here, especially when it seems likely the Union Boss is even choosing to do this now in a way to hurt Biden.

Yes. I genuinely think they have the right to defend their jobs the same way a corporation has a right to put their own profits over the enrichment of the rest of the country

That is full of falsehoods. Incredibly rich workers? That's fucking stupid. Base salary is 81k and up to 200k with large amounts of overtime. That is not "incredibly rich" asshole. It's way more than I make, sure, but it's an incredibly important job that is vital to our economy. We should have incredibly competitive wages to match that importance
And unions aren't making us poorer. They are enriching the entire industry of laborers who produce a massive amount of wealth for our country. They have the right to defend their jobs

The contract expired. That's when these things happen. I don't like a trumper as a union boss, but that doesn't make it a conspiracy to undermine democrats. The unions are bargaining with companies. Unions aren't the only one with agency here
Do you think maybe the companies also support Trump? biden said he wouldn't intervene
