West Coast Ports - LA / Long Beach Dock workers locked out
I hadn't seen any mention of this here - so thought I would kick things off.
The Port and the Union are in dispute from having a quick search looks like they have been locked out for 4 days - although briefly reopened today (Friday). There was a write up a few days ago from Zero Hedge here: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-0...t-coast-port-c - which detailed that West Cost Ports are responsible for approximately 3.5% of the US GDP.
Reuters has an article here with a bit of an update and background: http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/...0LH2CK20150213
If that isn't enough to get your attention check out the photos in the above link or better quality ones here: http://imgur.com/a/quS8p
From those pictures it looks like a lot of Sailors drinking Rum and playing cards to me....
