Shortage of:

Truckers.
Railroad workers.
Longshoremen.
Warehouse workers.
Ship crews.

All caused by COVID plandemic.

Please Explain. Exactly Why Do We Have a Shipping Crisis?

The end stages of finance capitalism and usury as a money system.

Sink the ships, restore sound money, and everything else will take care of itself.

Deep State.

Part if its “beating will continue until morale improves” campaign.

Also, they may be setting the US up for another Port Snort.

“Please Explain. Exactly Why Do We Have a Shipping Crisis?”

Because the governments of the world told the shipping companies and the media to say that their full ships all of a sudden cannot unload.

If they were to tell the truth, that the reason the ships aren’t unloaded is because the containers are empty, it would set off a mass panic.

Any other questions?

What kind of vodka {and how much} did you use in your Bloody Marys this morning?

Even tongue in cheek, your first sentence is too whacked out to post.

So, using CoupFlu and with the help of our Deep State, the ChiComs have just taken over our ports.

That and China is hoarding sea containers. It’s economic warfare and the deep state is complicit.

Even simpler explanation: you make more money on the government teat than you do busting your hump for 40 hours a week.

Bet this also explains why blue state govs haven’t called in the National Guard to operate the ports...

I, personally, think, it is because we have achieved first stages of Socialism in America.
Shortages and lack of workers are always part of Socialist economy.

Basically, all the government money printing, regulations and rules are coming back to roost.

We are getting a taste of what a trans Pacific war with “Asians powers” will be like. Shortages of everything and losing that war. Thanks Free Traitors™...

If anyone needed further proof that Congress is a wholly owned subsidiary of Deep State, Inc this is it.

Congress hasn’t said a peep or done anything about the ChiCom takeover of our ports.

Not a single, sodding one of them.
