Nope just make some things more expensive and harder to get for the average person tightening budgets just a bit more than they already are.

No, but shitholes are already using it as an excuse for their corrupt economies and raised prices.

I think they can just hit the front of the ship. Or offload the cargo?

Supposedly 10% of the world's economy travels through the Suez Canal.

It's a pretty big ship. Pictures might not really do it justice. It's around the same size as the Empire State Building.

short term, it'll force everyone to go around africa. everything going that way takes an extra week. that's not good, and i'm sure it'll hurt, but it shouldn't completely break anything.

i'm not at all sure how viable that is as we get closer to winter, if this drags out over a few months.

Because that ship and its cargo is both larger than and worth more than the entire company you work for?

I mean, that's pretty much the only way to ensure it is actually impossible. Though some things would have to be pretty deliberate.

True. My company's worth is probably close to the ship's cargo actually. And we can't fuck up the global trade.

If a single ship blocking a single route can collapse your entire world economy, perhaps it's time to rethink the way your economy works.

The amount of money lost by the blockage it probably would have been cheaper to offload it by barge and then demolition the whole thing and buy new ships to figure transporting the rest of the cargo.

if it represented any real threat to the economy in any way, it would already have either been dislodged or blown out of the water
