There is no reason to import something the USA can make themselves.

Yeah, they should have been sailed to Florida. But I think Biden controls the Panama Canal too
 Quoting: NoCap


There are other west coast ports.
Or just ship all the crap back to China.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78808920


On December 31, 1999, the United States, in accordance with the Torrijos-Carter Treaties, officially hands over control of the Panama Canal, putting the strategic waterway into Panamanian hands for the first time.

My understanding is that China is in control of the canal at this time. I may be incorrect on that.

Re: California ports to fine carriers over congestion
I think the carriers should start fining the ports for the backups and their unavailability to transport more goods.

See what I did there?

Same thing with the farmers that are sued over GMOs contaminating their crops. Be proactive, if your neighbor plants GMO crops, the bees then carry the pollen to your fields, why can Monsanto prevent the non GMO farmer from selling his crops?

Sue Monsanto for the cross contamination first, before they test your crops. And, what in the hell are they doing in your fields in the first place? Isn't that trespassing?

This is where fuck Joe biden admin needs to give resources to expedite the process and clear the jam.


A real leader, like Trump, puts resources to a problem, they don't fine the only people working in the problem.


That's what communists and socialists do.

Re: California ports to fine carriers over congestion
all the truckers i know refuse to pick up any containers at a port. The red tape needed just to go into the port is mind boggling they wont touch a shipping container no matter what you offer them
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81062799


Why can't they just unload the containers in Mexico and then have the illegals carry the stuff in. Maybe the Mexican's can give the illegals jobs for trucking the merchandise across our Southern Border...

I say bypass all the California ports and send them to other ports to be unloaded...

I bet the cartels will get involved and hide many illegals in those containers. Just think how many you can fit at $5K per head...

It's going to take a lot more coordination between many parties to really fix this problem. Based on what that trucker said, I don't see this problem getting fixed until 2023.

And then fines, fines and more fines.

Re: California ports to fine carriers over congestion
California is so smart! Create emissions standards that make it hard for trucking companies, then create many of other issues then fine them for not being able to be productive with all cali's red tape.

Officials have said they will start fining shipping companies whose cargo containers linger for too long at marine terminals, going into effect Nov. 1, according to USA Today.

In an effort to ease congestion at the nation's busiest port complex, the twin ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach said in a statement that arriving containers scheduled to be moved by trucks will be allowed to stay for nine days before fines start accruing.

Containers set to move by rail can stay at the ports for three days, after that ocean carriers will be charged US$100 per container, increasing in $100 increments per container per day.

if they look at who owns the ships, and the executive order of not dealing with any country embroiled in USA election fraud. then they will realise that thoes ships would be better sailing back to the port of orrigen for a redeploy strategy.

Really that's mighty nice of them. Fine the ports for not being able to move ships, as you make it harder for them to move the ships.

That's the solution! More inflation! Idiots run California.

The issue is the unions. The docks are inefficient. Truckers are tired of losing money waiting hours and hours or days to be loaded so many independents are no longer going there.

Get the docks operating efficiently again, more people, more cranes, 24/7 operation. And tell that idiot governor to loosen regulations on truckers for awhile to get the backlog taken care of.

You need to have a TWIC card to get into the ports and if you don't have one, you have to pay for an escort. Research what a TWIC card is, basically it's just a background check saying you're not a dirtbag that the gov't conducts.
