Morons are running California. They don’t let people do what needs to be done and then fines them. πŸ™„πŸ˜‘πŸ‘ŽπŸ»

Should let the containers pile up on principal.

This doesn't count the numbers on the dozens of ships at anchor outside those ports. But Butthead (SOT) had to have his girly-boy queer paternity leave with his queer husband.

I'm still trying to figure why he and queer husband both had to be at home taking care of their twins they adopted (bleak future). As if there have not been millions of women who took care of their newborns while the husband earned the keep or was on deployment in the military.

There should be a law...sorry, lost my PC mind.

Never let a good crisis go to waste.

Remember when distilleries tried to help out and make hand sanitizer and got fined ?

besides because of NAFTA there are lots of Mexican truckers who are happy to do the jobs Americans don’t want to do.

Carriers that don’t have trucks less than three years old which is all CA will allow. Yeah, that’ll work.

I think a strongly worded letter is in order as well.

60,000 containers = 60,000 trucks.

1,440 minutes per day

60,000/1440= 41 day, 16 hours to clear the back log

Not including the containers that are unloaded each day.

How come there isn’t a container fee moratorium like the eviction moratorium for renters?

So stupid and unnecessary. Brinden is such a nasty man.

Make no mistake about the fact that this is intentional.

It is all part of this new warfare against America.

Biden is doing a hell of a job here.

Hey libtards, this is what you look like when you are in charge.

Take a picture.

I’m sure the fines will help.

Democrats is spelled M-O-R-O-N-S. Never saw such stupidity as this in all the years I was involved in Container Shipping. From the sixties when I was in rigging, and went into CY operations through the nineties when I retired. I never saw such stupidity.

I thought the truckers were waiting days and weeks for loads. And they were not allowed to sit in line, the police were running them off.

If that’s true, why should they be fined?

Why not offload container ships at a Mexican port and truck them from there?
