did you guys hear about the deal with carnival cruise lines? They gave them like 300 mil for 6 months use of 3 boats...at full capacity for those 3 months it wouldve cost 1/2 that for you and I to take cruises every week for 6 months...basically they charged the gov't $1200/wk per room...whereas you can get a cruise for ~$600/wk lol. Faulkin gay...for some unknown reason I thought carnival was being nice & offered three boats to use for free...guess I was horribly wrong. Oh yeah they are incorp. on some island so they only have to pay like 1% in taxes instead of the roughly 25% if they were actually based in the US. I dont know who to hate more carnival or the people who were dumb enough to hire them. Oh yeah did i mention most people down there havent taken advantage of the situation & feel its a dead end to stay on the boats so only like 1/3 of the rooms are being used...and were still paying on the deal. Yes they were in a pinch & this was what was supposidly available in the time they needed to get done but geez wtf were they thinking...just set the ****ing people up in a couple of large hotels...figure $80/night=$560/wk...that wouldve been almost 1/3 of what they are paying out...hmmm wonder why our taxes are so high. Rant mode off...just read that earlier today.
