Not trying to weigh in on what to do or what not to do, but, > So you are happy for all international goods to get more expensive? I've heard a maybe 3-4% increase in cost of shipping for going around the long way around (around Africa). There's just not many people & in spite of their scale these cargo ships are remarkably efficient (by weight) means of transport. The cost of shipping seems a vanishingly marginal issue here.
