Message: [QUOTE="his dudeness, post: 3555024, member: 3732"] I work (or used to, tbd) full time on cruise ships as a musician and half of me wants them to go bankrupt as well. They burn the dirtiest, cheapest fuel possible, not because they need to, but because it increases profits. They flag their ships in countries with almost no labor protections and base their corporate entities in other countries that have very low corporate taxes. They knowingly, willfully dump toxic waste, garbage, bilge water, even grand pianos into the ocean and protected ocean sanctuaries life reefs and Glacier National park, because no one can monitor them full time to make sure they don't. The other half of me wants my job back because I enjoy getting paid to play music and travel the world. What did Marx say about contradictions? [/QUOTE]
