Trust and believe, the Baltimore port shutting down for a year will affect plenty of US trade, maybe not on the scale of the panama canal but still... this meme sells it short.
- That was the Suez canal not Panama
  
  Although the Panama canal is a problem too, because Gatun lake is running low. Every cycle of the locks loses a tremendous amount of water.
- Suez canal
  
  Shit you right
- That and I'm pretty sure no one died at the canal the ship just got wedged.
  
  The Baltimore bridge was a public road with people on it when it collapsed. People died there.
But sadly, while the Ever Given incident killed no one directly (though maybe through rerouted shippings like medical treatments), in Baltimore people died because the bridge collapsed while they were on it.
for all the zillions of shipping containers floating around the world 24/7/365, statistically expected there will be a few mishaps.
