U cant blame 30 years of foolishly offshoring manufacturing on a few union pukes.
If the USA was self sufficient there would not be a need for ANY ships what so ever.
USN torpedo practice!!!1
The real real problem is and has been off shoring and the lack of self sufficiecy. The USA was the arsenal of Democracy. Now the USA is a paper tiger. We are the importer and warehouser of democracy. LOL. I am loving how this exposes the fraud and weakness of globalism and “free” trade.
The real lesson to learn is that globalism and off shoring make the USA weaker and poorer in the long run.
Move factories back to the USA.
Pay more. Held wanted signs mean nothing. More pay is what will take down those signs.
The Military Sea lift Command (MSC) is expert at off loading ships at anchor.
Lawyers are worse by a small amount.
What we are seeing is a defacto tariff. Love it.
We never had this problem when the USA’s factories where in Ohio and not Sichuan.
LA docks are not unloading 24/7. To do that you need 12 hour s on 2 shifts 7 days or 3 shifts or 4 shifts of workers. The ILA won’t allow any of this. They’ll get whatever OT the union will give them and they probably make enough it isn’t worth it to deal with the traffic on the extra days.
Truckers in Ca. have way more restrictions on equipment and drivers so the stuff isn’t going anywhere even if it’s unloaded.
You are right about drugs reducing the driver pool but it’s also that the new beneration whatever they call it doesn’t want to drive. Heck they don’t even like to drive cars. Uber is it.
.here is an idea. hire extra people if it is man power issues

That get expensive fast with crane operators making $250K and dock workers $170K
The business Establishment ( globalist POS all ) are losing control of wages. Love it.
Longshoreman Union in San Pedro. She told me recently they are all “making bank”.

Creating wealth in a short period of time. At $250K and $170K for crane operators and dock workers respectively, those extra ours and more overtime hours add up real fast.
If the U.S. had no imports we'd have a whole different set of challenges. As I've pointed out in the past when it comes to this port congestion issue, fixing the ports only moves the problem downstream to other parts of the supply chain. The trucking industry and the highway system would become the constraints in that scenario.
I wish Mike Lindell would add more children’s items to his site to make shopping for kids easier.You think this is the place to suggest it?
Who's the clueless one in this picture?
Maybe that's why he hasn't tried it.
“You think this is the place to suggest it?”
It’s one place. Should I be banned forever?
“Who’s the clueless one in this picture?”
Who said, “clueless”? Did I say any one was/is clueless? Sheesh.
