Lack of ships and cargo at the Port of Seattle

International shipping to the USA has slowed dramatically and the word is this is just the beginning. This is extremely rare to see these docs without cargo.

Few more weeks and we'll start to see empty stores, leading to those stores shutdown. Small biz will get hurt the most whole corporates will be fine or even bailed out.
Back to Covid levels. Thanks MAGA.
- Back to Covid levels and then even worse
- Why would Joe Biden do this?
  
  Thanks Obama

Ships from China to the US take about 30 days. Trump started this insanity about three weeks ago. It won't get fuller in the near future...

On the flip side, maybe people will learn to be more resourceful and reduce/reuse/upcycle more
