And All the Ships at Sea

Timothy Birdnow

So why are they doing this? Is it just to inflate prices, or is there some actual justification for this?

1 Severe lack of longshoremen to unload the ships, and a shortage of truck drivers to haul the cargo out of the ports to make room for more incoming cargo.

3 Well that makes sense Bill, but the question is why are these shortages there now when they weren't before the pandemic and at least the truckers should have not been effected at all by it (trucking is a pretty solitary job)?  I still can't understand it.

Is it that the supply chains were disrupted and back-orders are only now coming so there is too much showing up?

4 Part is a massive buildup that started when the ports were closed to pandemic shutdowns. Once the ports are reopened, the clog does not clear up quickly. In fact it gets worse for some time before it gets better because the port is so crowded that nothing can move.

Shortage is there now because there is a worker shortage everywhere. Part is overpayment of unemployment benefits, but even as those are ending labor shortage remains.

Some is the fear mongering which makes people want to avoid work for fear of catching Covid and, of course, dying.

Some is people refusing to get a vaccine in order to work, and people who are working are quitting because of vaccine mandates.

Many are so deep in debt they don't want a job which has wages that can be attached.

The labor situation everywhere is gruesome and is going to remain so for a long time. The lockdown destroyed our economy in ways that cannot be repaired easily, if at all.

6 Well, that is all pretty sensible Bill. I live in the middle of the country and port activity is outside of my field of expertise.
