What does this mean to the average Joe?
With all this transportin’ going on, Chasten will have to get a foot long while Petey is out there workin’ his buns off.
Just in time for all of those empty containers.

That China now OWNS us, and the rest of the West.
Relevant to my interests
who cares?
The timing is off for these huge container ships. With world-wide inflation, and other severe problems, consumers will stop consuming...except for vital goods.

Ships made in CCP ?
Depends , how many are roro’s ?
( roll on roll off )
Think ‘ normandy’.
And hopefully none will be picking up and delivering products from China. I am curious to see how quickly we cut down commerce to and from China if facilities with Taiwan or others take place, we’ve already folded with Russia, allies, India, and China in regards to the Ukraine, will we continue directly doing business with China while our soldiers are in harms way?
Can these ships be used to transport military hardware and/or troops?

“who cares?”
The Neocons now care. This week they tried to threaten China to not send Russia weapons and Russia told them to STUFF IT. That’s what happens when you’re owned.
It means a lot of older ships will be scrapped to pay for the new ones.
The Chi-Commies have just built an invasion fleet disguised as container ships but filled with Helium tanks to launch a chaff of balloons pre-strike before they invade Texas, California, Seattle, and New Jersey simultaneously
I've bought Bob Evans family size mashed potatoes, and fresh-cut Simply Potatoes shredded hash browns at my local Price Chopper store that all had use by dates a month or two in the future, yet got them home to find mold on them. Simply Potatoes is produced by Bob Evans as well. I stopped buying Walmart's brand of fat-free coffee creamer, because it would go bad in my fridge a few weeks before the use by date. With the amount of money they are charging for food items these days, you have to be very careful, and check everything before throwing it in your basket.
Bingo!
Plausibly, the impending glut of container ships offer the US and her maritime allies that chance to bolster their sea lift capacity and develop new naval auxiliary vessels quickly and cheaply.
Very likely more efficient, replacing aging vessels.
