It seems that CA's policies are also partly to blame for creating some of the shortages themselves -- I believe you even mentioned that certain types of trucks are not allowed to load from the ports?
There are actually rules in place that only allow certain COLORS of containers to be offloaded at certain times.

Challenge butter is $2.99
lemon is .50 eac
Progresso is $1.99

Trucks? Wouldn't be surprised if there was a clean air requirement for diesels and they weren't letting pre-DEF/SCR trucks to operate at the port? Where was it mentioned? I'd be curious to learn more about that.

Gov Gavin Newsom & Mayor Eric Garcetti were there saying the antiquated equipment & system and shortage of drivers are to blame for the back log. They said it will continue into 2022.
