    He's making it up as he goes because he doesn't know a fucking thing about this.

    The price of oil is not reflective of anything OTHER THAN OPEC production cuts.

    Transportation costs aren't causing the supply chain crisis, SHIPPING CONTAINER SHORTAGES are.

    We sent thousands and thousands of shipping containers full of PPE to countries that aren't a part of the normal supply chain; so a container that would normally carry consumer goods from China to the US and back, instead carried PPE from industrialized nations to countries that aren't industrialized, and since those countries lack the infrastructure to turn containers around, they're literally sitting there, collecting dust, until the logistics teams at the private companies who own these containers can locate it and arrange for it to re-enter the supply chain.

    It's not as simple as Conservatives think because Conservatives are simple people.

    It's clear and obvious to everyone here on JPP that you're talking out of your ass and making shit up.

Then the containers just stayed there. So let's be clear...the supply chain crisis is because of the global response to COVID in 2020-21, and has nothing to do with the cost of transportation.

    You are a joke. Time for a new sock, eh?
    the containers do not explain the ships waiting to unload off port packed with goods

    this is really bad. Jobs are still 3 million short of pre-pandemic, and the feds are going to raise rates to combat #Bidenflation.. which is going to slow growth.

    Yes they do because those ships got backed up due to the fact that the supply chain was disrupted.

    So for a period, NO SHIPS were going to the ports, then suddenly ALL THE SHIPS were going to the ports because the shipping containers were finally turned around.

    But about 500,000 shipping containers are still in disparate countries not a part of the normal supply chain.

    The private companies that own these containers are deliberately keeping them in these countries in order to drive up demand and keep supply low. Because they get a fee from the distributor for using those containers and they can jack the fee up if they hold back the container supply. WHICH IS WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

    You also lied about getting an unsolicited mail in ballot.

    Inflated costs are only because you and Trump called COVID a hoax from Jan-Mar 2020 and turned it into a pandemic that disrupted the global supply chain.

    Maybe go drink some piss and shut the fuck up about it, you lying sack of crap.

    Gee, so maybe back from Jan-Mar 2020 it was a mistake for you and Trump to downplay COVID, which caused a global pandemic and disrupted your precious supply chains.

    If you haven't looked, how can you know this?

    You can't, obviously, so you're fucking lying as usual.
