(OP) User ID: 27784920 Ireland02/20/2020 03:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Refrigerated ships full of frozen food - known as ‘reefers’ - are unable to enter Chinese ports because berths are full and therefore cannot tap into electricity chargers. There is a logjam caused by the critical shortage of dockers and drivers. Meat supplies are spoiling at sea. The US Agriculture Transportation Commission said the Pacific supply chain has been badly “compromised” and logistical headaches are building up as US ports as well. There will soon be an acute lack of containers in both American and European ports as the finely-tuned regime of world maritime transport goes haywire Civilisation is at a crossroads "Unfortunately the Barbarians dwell among us and our country is grown so weak and pathetic that the Barbarians must be appeased in the name of diversity and cultural sensitivity" ~ Allison Pearson |

User ID: 73740423 United States02/20/2020 04:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So all the chicken & pork we ship over there to be 'processed' by the Chinese slaves adding cancerous chemicals, that all won't be coming back to the states? That's good. Process the food HERE withOUT cancer causing chemicals. More American jobs, healthier food. |

User ID: 55197973  Canada02/20/2020 04:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Container shipping from Chinese ports has collapsed since the outbreak of coronavirus and has yet to show any sign of recovery, threatening chaos for manufacturing supply lines and the broader structure of global trade. Almost half of the planned sailings on the route from Asia to North Europe have been cancelled over the last four weeks. A parallel drama is unfolding on routes from the Pacific Rim to the US and Latin America. Quoting: Jesus Wept Lars Jensen from SeaIntelligence in Copenhagen said the loss of traffic is running at 300,000 containers a week. This will cause a logistical crunch in Europe in early March even if the epidemic is brought under control quickly. “The dominoes are toppling through the whole chain. When ships don’t leave port in China, they don’t stop to pick up cargo in Hong Kong, Saigon, or Singapore either. Freight rates are in free fall,” he said.

Quoting: Half Past Midnight That's good. Process the food HERE withOUT cancer causing chemicals. More American jobs, healthier food. Good point. Hopefully this'll lead to a global reset when it comes to imports and relying on other countries so much.

I would still pay for it. |

Quoting: Half Past Midnight That's good. Process the food HERE withOUT cancer causing chemicals. More American jobs, healthier food. WHAT THE HECK! And the government complains about OUR CO2 usage when they are doing THIS?! How cheap and stupid can they be?! "Chinese chicken" will soon have a whole new meaning, as the U.S. Department of Agriculture recently gave the green-light to four chicken processing plants in China, allowing chicken raised and slaughtered in the U.S. to be exported to China for processing, and then shipped back to the U.S. and sold on grocery shelves here."

(Like one that is happening now) Set-up temp visas for Mexicans and let US companies do the work.
