China shipping ..

[furrowtickler]

Supposed to be over 500 ships waiting around harbour in Shanghai .. not good
Much bigger issue the the port of LA a few months ago . This is not good news for supply chains going forward on any level

It seems freaky because the little arrow are vastly larger than a ship it's self.

But if your freaked, imagine what it's like for the glowball warming nuts!
and add in jets, and now you know why the leftist want to shut everything down, both trade and travel. Covid restrictions helped their goal.

I asked the question in the thread about chinese locking down their farmers during seeding; do they just not think about the consequences?

Or is there something bigger?

Are they facing some much worse disease/variant that justifies such actions?

Or purposefully trying to control commodity inflation, and simultaneously, increase the price of the products they produce, by artificially creating shortages?

Or just short sighted, out of touch bloated bureaucracy focused on one single issue at the expense of seeing the big picture?

I would go with the last. Never attribute to malice which can be easily explained by stupidity.
