"This morning on Fox and Friends, Senator Mendendez of New Jersey said that maybe we should "incentivize" the company that runs the New Jersey port operation. Can you see him brining that pork home to N.J.?"

"Feinstein: Ports 'ought to be governmentally operated'"

And since no US company has the competency to operate ports now, who are they going to get to do this? Are they going to send a bunch of people to Dubai, Singapore, Japan, or China to get trained (I may not have the countries right, but I know only a handful of companies in the world do port operations - the Brits won't even be doing it any more)?

How large is this new government bureacracy going to be?

How much money in tax dollars will this cost the American people?

Since Americans don't have any experience in this, my guess is that this new dept, like most start-ups, will loose $$s for a number of years, how much and how long?
