NO, no it does NOT.
The owner of the dock and other experts have made it clear that 1) the Biden administration and other experts saw this coming for months - lockdowns, Un-Constitutional mandates, paying Americans NOT to come to work, monthly child tax credit checks, higher social program pay-outs, monthly rent moratoriums, Un-Constitutional mandates, etc... resulted in massive WORKER shortages.
Cargo ships have been anchored off-shore for MONTHS waiting to be able to come into port, waiting for workers to off-load cargo, waiting for workers to load cargo onto semi-trucks, waiting for truckers to drive the trucks to deliver the goods, waiting for workers to unload the trucks.
There is a reported 1+ MILLION cargo containers just sitting on the docks in California because there aren't enough workers and trucks / truck drivers to move the cargo off the docks, onto trucks, and delivered.
There is a reported several hundred thousand containers on ships at the docks unable to be loaded because there is no room on the docks to off-load more containers.
There is another reported 1 MILLION PLUS containers on cargo ships that have been anchored off-shore for MONTHS waiting for their turn to come into port to off-load their cargo.
Proving they have no f*ing clue what they are talking about, the Biden administration called on the owner of the Ca port to open the port 24/7 to off-load and mover the containers faster.
- The port owner complied, opening the port up for 24/7 operations; however, he responded to the request by stressing the problem with the crisis is not limited hours of operations at the port.
Automation:
Unless you have robots that can / will drive trucks 24/7....unless you have robots that can move the 1MILLION containers sitting on the docks and get more cargo ships in and off-loaded, more automation is NOT going to do anything to solve this crisis.
