that's 48 cargo ships and 6 oil tankers waiting to dock in Los Angeles ports, basically the equivalent of circling the runway. "Normal" number of ships doing this: maybe 1

This port handles 25% of all america's shipping
all the ships are backed up
that means you will not get your stuff, america no have goods
things on shelves line go down
Any particular reason for the backup?
Covid lockdowns and domestic production of goods being priority in some countries.
Shipping is fickle. A single cyclone can back everything up for months in normal times.
We are unfortunately not in normal times.
