I would have thought more would have been done by now. Seems to me we have some loafers in Washington. This is “change?” come on. I would have thought more would have been done by now.

I went to a bunch of hearings about pollution at the ports a few years ago, and having to listen to Walmart's lobbyist describe how her client's volume of goods would grow at a steady 10% every year, indefinitely. Hah! To those who profited by selling out American workers, by pretending that "the world is flat" because of low energy costs - good luck selling goods to non-existent people in vacant cul de sacs on the outskirts of civilization. It is going to "get a lot worse" because 99% of the American people are stuck in a 1920's fantasy of country living for everybody. We're going to fritter away what little wealth and good credit we have left propping up a living situation that has no future. p.s. I love James Howard Kunstler.

We see the cars backing up in Long Beach, products stacking up in wharehouses, banks not lending money, etc. The "change" promised by the new president will be welcome.
