This was bound to happen for years company’s sought out cheap labor shipping production overseas people want to blame whomever is in office but the fact is the current administration has ordered the ports to stay open 24 hours a day to keep goods moving .
Corporations that want to maximize profits are the ones to blame here this would not be happening on such a large scale if we were talking about American made products here.
How come no one ever blames the consumer? Most if not all people want to pay the cheapest price hence we end up buying the cheap stuff from China. It would be great if companies would also agree to make say 10 – 20 % profit instead of always trying to increase that to 100s and 1000s%. Then manufacturing could be kept in the US.
If we get into a Pacific war, China will be able to cut off all our imports. Then we can forget about problems shipping stuff into the country because there won’t be anything to ship.
This is kind of fun, like the comics that were offshored and done by foreign cartoonists, like the “Rambo” strip where the hero fought the Godfather and was helped by Man-Spider and one of the “Baywatch” female lifeguards and chased by dogs that went “Kesk! Kesk!”

I wish the oil people would change over to manufacturing people. No offense meant.

There should be a shipping guarantee for humor. For example: “If you don’t receive your shipment in thirty days, the joke’s on us.”

Now I see why you’re not that funny: your jokes come from a Chinese sweatshop….

It could be that the punchlines aren’t coming at all. An average of 1500 of those containers fall into the ocean every year. Talk about pollution!!

Those jokes are probably produced by 9-year-old children in Malaysia, which should tell us something. I’m not sure I want to know what it is.

I’d pay good money to have the crates which contain puns stay at sea for awhile longer…

Those are the empty joke containers that still have to get back to Taiwanese joke factories to be refilled with Easter jokes.

Stop buying cheap junk that’s shipped halfway around the planet. You won’t have that problem & you’ll cut carbon use.

What will we do without humor and wit? How will we survive?
