A record 62 cargo ships are waiting to dock at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.

California’s traffic jams are legendary, but this is one for the books.

A record 62 cargo ships are waiting to dock at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, and are stuck floating off the coast amid a serious supply chain crunch that could mean fewer toys under the Christmas tree this year.

The problem reflects a combination of growing cargo volumes, a labor shortage and COVID-related safety measures that slow the handling of each ship. About one-third of all imports into the U.S. pass through the ports each year.

The Port of Long Beach has broken monthly records for how much cargo has passed through for 12 of the last 13 months, with 32 percent more cargo processed this year than in 2020, according to the trade publication Supply Chain Dive. Backups at the port as cargo ships wait for berths have been common all year, and have only grown as the peak fall shipping season arrived.

  • I continue to find myself bored and underwhelmed by those who continually look back on history, especially ours, and continually seek to reveal what, to them, are horrors of human weaknesses and greed. Bombs and Japan? On balance, how many million more deaths if not? Woodrow? Resegregation of these United States. FDR/Depression, the direct end result of "Northern Form of the Legalization of the End of the Southern Style Form of Slavery with far less Humanitarianism and effects on the Environments." Algorithms? In existence for thousands of years, in essence mere recipes/formulas to achieve potential outcomes without guarantees! Very similar to "Weather Forecasting" subjective to varieties of variables. They do not "Fix Election Outcomes." Stupidity, Fear, Ignorance, Panic, Greed and an overall feeling of cowardice " determine Voting Outcomes. Given a choice, the majority of people truly want their "Fears Validated", rather than " Exposed as being Phantoms." This is reflected during Elections as most people's vote is a validation of themselves and not a Step Towards Hope!

    • Fruad indeed has directed the outcome of our elections and has been doing so for several decades... blaming the public for failing to dismiss the agents of fraud ignores the trust and respect most individuals had for government... a government that produced the prosperity and liberty the whole world envies.  Blaming the victims for the acts of criminals and the deceitful is ridiculous.  Attaching blame to the public for the criminal work of a few demented individuals who have abused the trust of many is misdirected judgment...

      Know your ENEMY... it isn't the common man on the street, it isn't the Black, Red, Yellow, or Whiteman, it is the political class and their allies that have brought us to this point in time. If there is to be civil war wage it upon your enemies ... not your neighbor or fellow workers... not those who have faithfully worked all their lives to support our Constitution and its Republican form of government.

      Separate friend from foe... know your enemy, it is the progressive, pragmatist, and political hack, whose only thought is to feed their own belly and that of their kind. Those evil men and women, who would deceitfully use their neighbor to advance their own cause, whose entire existence has been one of self-promotion.. are the common enemy of the People.  The opportunist, Marxist, pragmatist, and Globalist, and professional politician have sold out America for a seat of power in the New World Order.

  • Proverbs 11:29 "He that troubleth his own house will inherit the wind, and the fool will be servant to the wise of heart." For whatever reasons it is "We" the American Citizens who have given up control of Our Nation with the results we all are experiencing today. We allowed it and are the "Fools" snarling empty words without actions allowing mindless authorities to maintain complete control over all aspects of our lives.

  • Actually Lopez, setting aside referenced examples to "Fishing and Dirty Old Men looking for Sexual Favors" most everyone of your responses to everyone on every Topic, well fit within the Definition of "Troll!" So if the "Shoe Fits", guess what?You're the Shoe!

  • Good, let's send them all back and open new manufacturing and agribusinesses in the US... We need to become self-sufficient again... an exporter of finished goods and materials... not a neet importer.

    • Yes, self sufficient!

    • It's very obvious that you are not very well connected to what is "Really happening" . . . .

       

    • The nature of the Presidency, at least from from Teddy Roosevelt onwards, is its use as ,"The bully Pulpit".

      It would be near impossible for Donald Trump or any unbought and paid for office holder in Washington D.C. to actually make serious headway.

      That Trump actually did so as a political newbie, is a WOWer that startled and hieghtened the resolve of leadership Deep Staters to tighten their death grip around the Nations neck.

      It took a whole Nation being distracted and tricked over decades, to walk us into this trap. You think one man can do it by himself?

    • The problem in taking the role of leadership is you must measure up to it. Few if any redefine their role to fit themselves and survive it to an old age death (the charismatics: Julius Ceasar, Napolean Bonaparte, Alexander the Great, Lycurgus of Sparta, Sir William Wallace, for example did not). To live the role of Chief Executive means you must believe what it is. That means subjection to periodic election for two terms total.

      I remain convinced, that the public still expects to look to the Presidential podium to gain a sense of the current state of the National interest, where it is heading or ought to be so (not with Joe though). For thinking aware folks, the owned MSM propoganda machine serves as an indicator of how its owners want to proceed, but not for a truth-based narrative of the World.
