Biden's plan to relieve port congestion in CA is a failure

[marvin martian]

So you have no solutions...just hatred.

Got it

The solutions aren't my job, they're the job of the senile, lying dipshit you "elected", and he's a massive fucking failure. Good job.

Just partisan hatred

Like everything Cone Licker does, his plan to alleviate the supply chain crisis he caused has failed epically.

"Lower your expectations" is now the official motto of the Biden administration.

Biden's Plan to Relieve Backlog at Port of Los Angeles Is Not Working

President Biden last week announced plans to increase the capacity of the Port of Los Angeles by extending its hours. So far, it is not working.

Biden announced on Wednesday of last week that the Port of Los Angeles has agreed to go to 24/7 operations. Essentially, this would mean allowing cargo owners to pick up goods between 3 a.m. and 8 a.m.

“This is the first key step to moving our entire freight transportation and logistical supply chain nationwide to a 24/7 system,” Biden said.

He added that it could be a “game changer.”

After a week, the game is largely the same. There are a record number of container ships in the waters near the Port of LA and the Port of Long Beach, which together handle 40 percent of container traffic coming into the U.S. The Port of Long Beach opened itself up to similar nighttime and weekend shifts a few weeks ago.

The problem is that there have been no requests from cargo owners to use the red-eye shift at the Port of L.A., according to a person familiar with the operations of the port. It’s not clear if Long Beach has seen a pickup in demand for loading trucks during the 3 am. to 8 a.m. time slot.

A spokesman for the Port of L.A. said the ports operator has opened the gates and the terminals were willing to add the five hours to operate 24.7. The White House says members of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union have said they are willing to work extra shifts.

So what’s the hold up?

Analysts who have looked into the supply chain problem say it is not the hours of operation at the ports that is the major hold up. Instead, the constraints are shortages of truck drivers and warehouse employees. These were in short supply during regular hours and are extremely difficult to put in place for a 3 a.m. shift. And there is a shortage of truck chassis themselves.

Get off yer ass and go get a job in California working to alleviate the problem instead of sitting on yer ass bitching.

It's a capitalist problem more than the govt. and I doubt you won't miss those imported fuzzy dice.

We went from make America great to lower your expectations in 10 short months. What a shame.

Yup and get rid of the ridiculous rules for trucks in Cali.

Better yet send them to Florida. Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Cape Canaveral and Tampa all have deep water ports. They can offload there.

Sure. We need to just dump the safety requirements for trucks. That doesn't sound crazy at all.

 

[jknowgood]

Get off yer ass and go get a job in California working to alleviate the problem instead of sitting on yer ass bitching.

I wouldn't go to that shithole for nothing. A product of liberalism.

What would YOU suggest genius?

He wasn't elected to solve problems, Biden was and he is failing miserably

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Sure. We need to just dump the safety requirements for trucks. That doesn't sound crazy at all.

So you think banning trucks over 10 years old is a reasonable rule? Lol

A 2011 truck isn't dangerous if maintained. You loons are stupid.

Not my job, troll. Your "president" should have thought of that before he came up with his failed "plan".

The government eliminated the use of trucks 2011 and older. Nothing to do with capitalism.

You don't remember the mayhem on Texas roads when older Mexican trucks were allowed to cross the border, do you?

Owner operators are not banned. There was a determination of who is considered a contractor as opposed to an employee. Owner/operators are contractors,

They're doing that in GEORGIA?

Ask Trump! He would have them boats unloaded by now. Dumbass.

Absolutely.

Problem solved.

Repeal those ridiculous truck laws in California and send some ships to Florida.

Building our own manufacturing companies and giving the navy target practice.

*****SMILE*****

What else would any one with half a brain think? Biden is an old fool and has always been an old fool.

Answer my question

Truck engines that old don't meet pollution standards. Upgrade the engine and other required safety requirements and they are good to go. It's cheaper to buy a newer truck than to do the upgrades. Insurance companies don't want to cover older trucks. Too much liability.
