They can't take over unless it's ok'd by the US. period. P&O can sell anything they like but we have to ok it. Those "in the know" say it's not a done deal. Most conservative pundits are saying it's not going anywhere and will be stopped. British shareholders have NO say in US security.

Uh the point still stands DPWorld now legitmately owns P&O's assets and if they are not allowed to operate they can sell or strip the assets and infrastructure and have a perfect legal right to while putting many Americans out of work.

I don't think so. Running ports is something Americans still know how to do. Especially now that it's more or less computerized.

Besides, you forgot your argument that "the port operator doesn't really do anything but supervise the longshoremen."
