Meanwhile those container ships outside the LA ports can stay where they are.

And I see where the Dollar Store is raising everything to $1.25, so much for XMAS presents to all of you LOL.
Jim, we've all been guilty of it at one time or another. But it's gone way over center now and the only ones who can correct it is us. We barely manufacture anything here now and it will get worse if something doesn't change. People my age will likely be OK for the time we have left, but what about our kids if we are dependent on imports to sustain our country?

I was going to put in parentheses that I wouldn't hold my breath waiting on the politicians as well.
