The sight of container ships makes me want to throw up. They represent everything wrong with the USA. Cheap slave made crap coming in. Money, natural resources and empty containers going out. They will make nice targets when a shooting war starts.

More obstacles for the U.S. Navy to avoid (sometimes). Hehehe.

It's Malcom Mclean's fault.

Would like to see the finance details behind these orders.
The above link puts Japan in the lead for value under construction. Their central bank already owns their stock market.

Maybe they’re expanding into shipping.

maybe it’s to sneak in more people after the border wall goes up?

Watch the stack trains go by every day here. Before Obastard left, the trains would go through about one in every 10 to 15 minutes. Now is one every 5 and BNSF is having problems with traffic jams.

Trucking on I 40 is really high also.

Makes zero sense - record high over capacity - empty ships lined up at Ports of LA / Long Beach. Industry shift in high value freight to Air not Sea.

Does the Baltic Dry Index indicate a need for more capacity?

If you ship huge magnets, won’t they stick to the hull? Not to mention screwing up the compass.
