I don’t mean to sound like Rick Perry, but please bring your business to Houston’s port.

In a couple of years you should see an increase at the Houston port assuming they can
handle it. It will also impact ports along the eastern seaboard.
Panama Canal expansion to have major impact on Boston

When the project is completed over the next two years, the canal will be able to handle
hulking ships capable of carrying 14,000 20-foot containers, nearly triple
the size it can now accommodate.

Texas will need to build 300 hundred more zillion square foot walmarts to sell all the Chinese stuff...More good payen jobs!
Dude when the expanded Panama opens I’ll believe Houston will boom even more. I’m so glad I moved here a decade ago. After last winter in the upper Midwest and New England, I’m sure many others will move here too. We’ve been booming for a while and I can’t see anything but.
