The training pipeline for new workers has already vanished. The way it worked before was that newbies only worked when they needed extra labor for some reason, so these guys were collecting a paycheck maybe only once or twice a week and doing something else the rest of the time until they graduated to full time worker.
Now they only need like 10% of their full time workforce for the next like decade. So Baltimore is det that whole time. Then you gotta fire up the port and attract a new workforce to...Baltimore?
The best thing to do right how would be to offload more Federal agency work to Baltimore, get that shit out of DC. Bulldoze Lexington Market using eminent domain.

I thought about making a separate thread on this but seems more relevant here for scholarship such as your title.
My main thesis is to view the current event in the context of its FUBR time. If this happened in 1990, I wouldn't think twice. But in today's world, when stars align, mother philosophy guides my view.
1. we have a ship in transit impacting critical infrastructure. A key term.
2. said ship loses power but manages to steer directly into the bridge like an episode of paw patrol gone wrong
3. Prior to said ship striking said bridge, three minutes notice was given to a police force organized solely to patrol the bridge. That is enough time for an average driver to cross the 1.5 mile bridge and back again before the strike happens. No motorist are impacted by this coordination.
4. HOWEVER, the maintenance crew, made up of immigrants working on a state highway bridge, who are at the top of the bridge doing work in the lane of travel, roughly .75 miles from either side of the bridge, sitting inside of their vehicles on "lunch" at 1:30am, are not notified of the pending dome 3 minutes away.
5. In response to the tragedy, within 48 hours, DEI is inserted into the debate by both political parties and becomes an issue of debate on national television while regular people in that city suffer.
what a string of bad luck.

The bridge only did like 30k cars a day. That's very, very low for an urban bridge.
Green Bay, Wisconsin has 3 bridges that beat that in volume.
The 35W bridge that collapsed in Minneapolis did like 5x the volume of the Key Bridge

They could have cleared the channel already, but it’s government and regulations and they have done shit.

Here's the part that's fucked up:

They never shot any scenes of The Wire there I don't think. It's not even part of the City of Baltimore. That's out in the county. BTW Baltimore County is the 4th richest metro in the USA by some measures due to a confluence of factors, but whatever go back to making fun of the mayor of the Baltimore City.
