They are moving containers away from the port & onto city streets...blocking parking.

I think we’ve been trying hard in Florida to keep the Chinese from taking over our stuff!

Well, given that it is messed up at the State level, why won’t Biden work with Newsom to authorize six months or one year suspension of the interfering rules?
The cleanup might only take a month, but you’ve got to throw the other truck owners a bone so that they start up operations.
Of course, better still would be to not have screwed with the trucking operations in the first place. But, I’m thinking of a way for Joe to both save face and save Christmas. It wouldn’t be so bad for Newsom either (alas), if he properly explained it as a trucking surge to deal with the demand surge coming out of the pandemic.

If you added a one year tax holiday for any truckers hauling goods out of California you would have a winner.
I am convinced that the failure to follow these policies is because the Democrats _want_ the economy to fail to crush the middle class.

Florida has ports...nice ones. Any idea why ships aren’t tripping through the Panama Canal to Tampa?

I wonder how Seattle would compare to LA. I don't understand this. You'd think "containergeddon" would be a bonanza for the ports of Seattle and Tacoma.

Something I haven’t seen addressed is the condition of the contents in those containers that are rotting away, either on board the ships or stored in the ports.
Somebody on YouTube said that a reviewer reported that when they went to buy some shoes, the dealer was out of stock. Not that they weren’t delivered, but that the shoes he received were all covered with mildew from stewing so long in those hot containers. The silica gel packs to absorb moisture failed after a few days as they weren’t meant to last weeks.
How much of the those contents that do get delivered is usable?

Absolutely. This is an excellent if depressing explanation of that premise.

“The Biden Embargo” on the U.S. From Sovereign Nations
What president would embargo his own country? A treasonous treacherous bought and paid for traitor to this country, that's who.
I'm interested in who is calling the shots here. There are three main players pulling Biden's strings I believe, Xi/CCP, Soros, and BlackRock. ( of course others like Obama, BigTech oligarchs, WEF, ETC).
The embargo hurts China's economy as well as ours, and could devastate many others worldwide.
Who benefits or would like to see that happen? Just curious, not that we little people can do much about it. We know all of them would like to see US economy crushed, but who of the above leaders doesn't care if China's is as well?
This way different than Jimmy Carter type stupidity…
It is an act of war.

If the Cali government issued an emergency waiver that allowed any truck that could move to work the port, they could make headway on the backlog.
That is a simple, inexpensive, logical and workable solution. The Government will never consider doing it!

The California ports are running out of places to store containers full of goods that are getting off-loaded.True. There is only so much designed dock space volume that those huge cranes can access.
