    Buy less. If it comes from China - odds are you don't really need it. Seriously. Their main export is "stuff."

    Kinda tough to stop buying socks. They come from China, too.

    The issue is some of the materials come from China and elsewhere. And some important products are "finished" here so they can slap a made in America tag on them. Also, you should probably buy that new phone ASAP.

    It’s almost like outsourcing all manufacturing to a country across the ocean so a few rich dudes could get richer was a bad idea. Who knew?

    The governor has caved and is changing his name to Heywood Jablome.

    It's a perfect shitstorm.

    Increased demand from consumers.

    Production and Chinese port ops disrupted by Covid.

    US railroads running fewer trains to cut reduce ops and please shareholders so...

    ...domestic intermodal terminals backed up with inbound containers, aggravated by...

    ...massive shortage of drayage truck drivers to pick up containers.
