and just who are you going to get to run the terminals then? name one american company that does run any of the port terminals?
Two US companies who manage terminal port operations in the US are ranked 8th and 9th largest. One such company is called SSA Marine, a family owned operation out of Seattle. They're the largest terminal operator in the United States. Overall, I believe 80% of US port terminals are foreign managed. 20% American managed.
