My husband’s aunt owns a furniture store and some of their furniture comes form China. She said the price of a shipping container rose from $1800 to $22,000.
China is trying to strangle America with Biden’s blessing.
Oh, to know exactly what China has on Hunter Biden. That seems to be part of the key.
Famines today are not natural occurrences as in the past.
Today they are all man-made.
With few alternatives to ships to move goods around, the only choice will be to move the factories that make them.
Make stuff in America again, like Trump tried to encourage. Might cost more, but at least the nation’s supply lines should work. I have a feeling some of this is staged by the Commie Rats.
And the problem is? Maybe this will make Chinese goods more expensive, leading to more American made products.
Many subtle details in that story.
Transportation issues, supply shortages; repatriate your manufacturing to fly over country where there are plenty of railroads and trucks to deliver your goods. The shelves in a local grocery store are beginning to look like we are in Russia from 50 years ago, or Cuba recently.
Knowing that Clueless Joe, through his ChiCom handlers, will do everything in his power to protect Chinese markets, there’s never been a time when it was more important to buy American made products.
Thanks
.....and the hits just keep on coming. More man made disruption compliments of the biden/harris/China administration.
America first policies would make us less dependent on rogue, terrorist/communist nations.
It’ll cost less than trying to pay $22k for a shipping container.
We started to die as a nation the second we started sending all of our supply production overseas.
This encourages me to over-buy when I do find it in stock.
The vet supply house that I use (for decades) sent me an email telling me that the item I wanted to buy was now in stock. The next morning when I went on-line to buy it....it was already out of stock again. I called and they said next time I got an email, call in my order immediately..."they can't keep things on the shelves", she said.
America should move factories ( note the chip shortages ), mining ( not just rare earth for batteries & phones) , etc... back to the US..
Ross Perot warned us when Clinton signed NAFTA - listen for the giant sucking sound as good job go away.
Sink the ships.
Build it here or do without.
These days there are two kinds of folks:
Hoarders and fools.
;-)
Tell him to stock American made furniture instead - they are plenty of American furniture manufacturers in the North Carolina and other states.
Chinese furniture is made like sh!t anyway
Local furniture salesman told me the same thing.
Should help US manufacturers.
