Yeah, well stagflation is the best the worst can be...

The consumer impact is sudden.  However, the supply chain impact is more akin to slowing down a freight train with thousands of boxcars.  It takes time.

And the logistics remains sluggish.  Next, factor in the sickouts...

See this stupendous BS?

The White House has been consulting with the oil industry to seek a remedy for rising gasoline prices as surging inflation threatens to tarnish the economic recovery, according to three people familiar with the discussions.

https://www.politico.com/news/2021/10/13/white-house-biden-gas-prices-515957



 ::hysterical::

Has to be the most retarded conversation ever!

Illegitimate Biden/Harris Regime's Chief of the Central Planning Committee Directorship of Economic Activity, Wesley Mouch - "Hey?  We need you to lower gas prices?"

Oil Executives - (mumbling)

Mouch - "Just on a temporary transitional basis."

Oil Executives - "How long?"

Mouch - "Not too long, just till we get things turned around to the new normal earth-friendly sustainable ways of doing energy stuff."

Oil Executives - (mumbling)

Mouch - "Hey, we're all in this together, everybody has to do their share for the greater good."

Oil Executives - "You allowing more exploration"?

Mouch - "Umm, no...that's not environmentally friendly...isn't everything already explored?  Just drop the prices."

Oil Executives - "There is always new discoveries... Are you allowing pipelines?"

Mouch - "Certainly not!  They're ecological time bombs!"

Oil Executives - "Uhh huh...no point in informing you how product flows now...on aging infrastructure you won't let us repair, is there?"

Mouch - "Look, just lower the prices by half, that should be fine."

Oil Executives - "You can do that yourself...just end the taxes."

Mouch - (gasp) "Are you crazy?  The government needs revenue!"

Oil Executives - "And we don't?"

Mouch - "You have more than enough, you can sacrifice!"

Oil Executives - "Actually, no...it used to be back in the DTD (Donald Trump Days) we could earn our usual 8% on gross revenue after a double-dose of taxes to put back into infrastructure, exploration and new reserves and merit increases for our employees...but thanks to your enlightened leadership we are lucky to have near half that...we have none to spare.  Reduce your taxes or pull your idiotic regulations."

Mouch - "You can't be serious?  This is not reasonable.  You must reconsider, or we will force you!"

Oil Executives - "Force away, we're walking away...you figure it out."

Mouch - (Screaming, swearing...incoherent bleating)

Oil Executives - "What a dangerous little moron..."

Half of the U.S. trucking fleet is "non-compliant" with Ca. pollution standards, so, it's not a truck driver shortage, it's a shortage of trucks allowed into Ca.'s rarified air.

Plus, I saw a vid this morning made by a man who went to one of the ports and reported that NONE of the eight cranes were in operation while a bevy of tractor-trailers were sitting there, idling.

Vox Day said that trucks older than 2011 cannot go to the port?
Also CA AB 5 messed with drivers formerly classified as independent contractors?

I looked into CA AB 5
Can Truck drivers be independent contractors in California?
What Has Changed for California Truck Drivers? In June 2019, the California Assembly passed a bill aiming to make it difficult for companies to classify workers as independent contractors rather than employees, and in Sept. 2019, the governor signed it into law.May 14, 2021

Does AB5 apply to truckers?
"The court's ruling confirms that California's AB5 law can be enforced against trucking companies that misclassify their workers — and it should be obvious to everyone that drivers who perform work for a trucking company are employees of that company, not independent contractors."Apr 30, 2021

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/economy/lazy-crane-operators-making-250-000-a-year-exacerbating-port-crisis-truckers-say

Quote
... “In 15 years of doing this job, I’ve never seen them work slower,” said Antonio, who has spent hours waiting at Los Angeles County ports for cargo to be loaded. “The crane operators take their time, like three to four hours to get just one container. You can’t say anything to them, or they will just go [help] someone else.”

The Washington Examiner spoke to six truck drivers near the Long Beach/Terminal Island entry route, and each described crane operators as lazy, prone to long lunches, and quick to retaliate against complaints. The allegations were backed up by a labor consultant who has worked on the waterfront for 40 years. None of the truckers interviewed for this story wanted to provide a last name because they fear reprisals at the ports.

The crane operators are part of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, which also represents longshoremen. Veteran operators who have a set schedule make approximately $250,000 a year, while others who receive daily work assignments make $200,000, said labor consultant Jim Tessier, who represents longshoremen in disputes against the union.

... As of Wednesday, 59 ships were at a berth unloading cargo at one of the three Los Angeles ports. Another 88 are anchored off the coast stretching along Orange County and around Catalina Island, according to the Marine Exchange, which coordinates the ship traffic. The wait time to come into port can be weeks, including one ship that has been in a holding pattern miles offshore since Sept. 9.

As a consequence, that mean trucks cannot be older than 3 years if they are to pick up or deliver containers at those ports.
So it worse than vox day said. Three years is around 2018.

The longshoremen got a sweet deal to buy labor piece back when they introduced container ships.
Their union was/is(?) full of commies.

I recall Frank, Obama's commie mentor, moved from Chicago to Hawaii for some reason related to their union and commies. He was a card carrying CP USA member and had an FBI file. He was gay or bi and spent lots of time alone with teen age Barrack. He also wrote pulp pornography.

It's at least two problems blocking things up at the port(s) there:

No trucks built after 2010 allowed - emissions issues.  (Not three years old)  Yes, I'm rolling my eyes.

Crane operators are working when and how slow they feel like it.

I can't remember the 3rd thing right now .............
