Our local paper in the South Bay of Los Angeles says there are something like 47 container ships waiting to be unloaded at the Ports of LA and Long Beach. All anchorages are full so some ships have to just drift while they wait. Normally, I think they said there are like 16 total at the ports.
Way, way too much stuff that Americans need or want to buy is floating just offshore.
Is the problem labor shortages or there something political going on?
It was like that in May when I flew into Long Beach.
