The Real Cost of Cruises | Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj | Netflix

Cruises are the fastest growing travel sector in the United States, with 20 million people setting sail annually. On the latest Patriot Act, Hasan probes into what cruise lines like Royal Caribbean and Carnival don't advertise: the way they exploit workers, skimp on safety, and sweep crime under the rug.

[@willerwin3201]

Just as you shouldn't take a cruise's facade at face value, you shouldn't take a comedy show's take on cruises at face value. The truth is much more complicated than what Hasan is pushing. Some examples: Take his "low wages" argument. Average income in the Philippines is $3k. Cruise lines start them at twice that while dropping their living expenses to basically nothing. No-one is forcing Filipinos to take these jobs; they *want* them. If these cruise jobs went away, that would be a very bad thing for them. Take the "murder is easy" argument. This is a classic red herring. It sounds like something awfully important, but it doesn't really happen. On the legal side of things, crime reporting gets complicated, but people don't generally go on cruises and commit crimes. As for the sexual assault/groping incidents mentioned, those are awful, of course. That said, he provides no meaningful statistics about how likely you are to have your kids groped on a cruise ship vs all the other places where kids get abused on places that aren't cruise ships. Take the "OMG kids are drowning" argument where he talks about a 5-year-old kid who drowned in an unsupervised pool. There's a good argument to be made for having lifeguards. That said, most ships have some not-small signs saying that you swim at your own risk, and that children should never swim un-supervised. I would never let a 5-year-old child of mine swim un-supervised even with lifeguards on duty, nor would I take a 5-year-old on a cruise in the first place. Take his point about sulphur dioxide. This is a legitimate point, but the comparison is somewhat suspect. Cruise ships tend to cruise out at sea and emit most of their sulpher dioxide out there, where there aren't a lot of people. Sulphur dioxide is chemically reactive, meaning that unless you have a lot of people living very close and downwind of the exhaust tubes producing it, they're not breathing it in. This is why there's been a big push to reduce the sulphur content in car fuels. At sea, this chemical has much more space to dissipate and dilute to safe levels. This is still a problem, but it's not as bad as Hasan makes it out to be. Hasan's take on cruises is entertaining, and there are actually some good points in there, but the view he presents suggests that his research was an exercise in confirmation bias in support of a hatchet job rather than a credible attempt to understand what he's criticizing. His NYC-centric worldview gives him a distorted view of this topic and the people involved, and he seems more interested in presenting outrage than truth.

[@willerwin3201]

All that said, here are some personal criticisms I have of cruise lines: 1. They pack too many people on the big ships. This makes it hard to get seats to the shows and turns boarding and disembarking into a giant cattle drive through one or two narrow hatches. You'll be standing in line for a lot of crap. If you can, choose to cruise on smaller ships. 2. There are a lot more "extra fee" services and activities on ships than there used to be. You don't have to use them (and I suggest you don't in general), but they take up a larger portion of the ship than they used to. 3. Every port of call includes a giant tourist trap with overpriced crappy tourist stuff, and you have to walk a good half mile or so to get through it after you leave the ship. Roatan is so bad that you have to pay $40 bucks per person just to get away from the tourist trap and go to a town where people actually live. All that said, I still love cruises for a lot of reasons, including: 1. Unless you dine in one of their extra fee restaurants, the food is all included and very good quality. 2. You don't have to do your dishes, make your bed, or do any chores. 3. You can get away from it all and unplug from your phone and email. 4. The scenery changes, and many of the sights / ports are worth seeing (especially on Alaska and European cruises). 5. The weather is generally awesome, especially if you're escaping winter to go on a tropical cruise. 6. There are plenty of things to do if you want to stay busy. 7. You don't have to do much of anything except show up for the lifeboat drill and get off at the end.

In 2007, a group of people came to our cosmetology school from the cruise line and talked about how wonderful it would be to travel abroad and get paid. When asking them questions, they would never get to the point and give vague answers. I thought it was suspicious that they brought agreements with them, and tried getting people to sign. These people were acting shady. I turned down the offer, not hearing anything about the business from other people. Other girls got hooked. Learning about this dark side of business makes me thank the Lord for my brain. Boy did I dodge the bullet. My intuition did not fail. Free cheese is only in a mouse trap.

Woah. I'm from Ukraine. Lots of Ukrainians work on cruise ships. I myself considered taking the job. You must work 10+ hours every day without days off. Contracts are 6-8 months long. And if you're a first timer, you often have to buy your plane ticket to the port of boarding with your own money. That's just insane. Oh yes, the salary. I was looking for a position of a waitress. So it's around 900 bucks fixed per month plus tips (approx. 500$). So you earn around 1500 bucks but you'll be imprisoned. And the saddest thing of all is that we agree to do this because in Ukraine average salary is 300 bucks a month. Pathetic

I decided I'd better stay home, and earn my 600-700 bucks, than be enslaved. Besides, if I want more money, I can always start working 12 hrs a day, 7 days a week here.

[@nickfotopoulos5323]

Wait, so you work like a dog for 6 months and return home with roughly 2.5 years worth of salary? 6 months is $9,000. Let's pretend that you have obligations back home like a family to support, and have to send $300 per month home also. You have virtually no living expenses on the ship, so anything else you spend is mostly optional. And if it's your first time your gonna drop $600 on a plane ticket from Kyiv to Tampa. So after 6 months you return home having paid all of your bills at home and you have $6600 dollars in your pocket. That's almost 2 years of average salary. Even if you live in Kyiv where the average salary is $700 you still end up coming home with $4200 which is enough to live off of for 6 months. You could either spend 6 months at home chilling with your family, or kick start a business. This still sounds like an amazing economic opportunity. To put this into perspective for Americans. The median monthly wage in the US is $3,900. If a cruise line was offering almost $20,000 a month to work on a cruise ship would you take it? That's almost $250,000 a year. That puts you well into the top 10% of earnings in the US. Doctors and lawyers would be quitting their professions to go work on cruise ships. I'd let them lock me up in a dog kennel and eat kibble for 6 months for that kind of money! 😅

[@vanta6lack]

@@nickfotopoulos5323 basically, yes. But there are some other financial issues that have to be dealt with before departing, of course, like medical checkup, US visa, etc. On average, you need 1000-1500 dollars to get you set for work on a cruise ship. One-bedroom apartment in Kyiv can cost from 50 to 70K US dollars, so roughly you have to complete up to ten contracts to buy it.

I tried to get a lawyer to sue. I was told that because my son didn’t die it would be too expensive (more than I would get from the lawsuit) to sue them on foreign shores.

[@luanap.f.4109]

I worked on board cruise ships as a stewardess for ten years, quit last year before the covid thing. I worked for mainstream cruiselines and also the luxury categories. What I have to say is that the salary and tips are highly attractive compared to our average wage here in Brazil. As a stewardess you can earn good money and save it too. The catch is that It`s really tough to work around 10 hours a day without a single day off for your entire contract, ranging from 4 months to 9 month contracts. After my first contract (8 months) I have to say I got really stressed due to the working routine that affects you mentally more than anything. In my first company we had 23 suites to clean twice a day, and embarkation day we were encouraged to `hire` a helper, paying from our own salaries. It was not the company policy, but most of us stewards/ess felt like we were not able to finish on time just doing everything by ourselves. It was insane, I certainly started to get mentally ill at that time, kind of burn out. We never had time for anything, I was always tired and didn’t want to go ashore, preferring to sleep. Then I quit this first company and tried to live `normal` life in here, but ship life besides all the negative side effects on my health still felt like a good option for me, a high salary, not having to cook or do the dishes, pay rent or transportation, getting to visit places you would never be there in that fucking country if it wasn't for this job, these kind of advantages.. then after three years in Brazil trying to live normal life I decided to go back, the shit is this addictive I guess. It`s like abusive relationship, you keep coming back because you haven`t realized how much this work has damaged you. You have to be psychologically strong enough to cope with ship life. I fortunately found better companies after my first experience. Crew life can be good onboard, it all depends on the cruise line and your goals in there. Do you want build a career or may be just save some money? My last two companies to work being luxury had a different approach with the guests, we weren't mere cleaners, we had to pamper the guests( mostly from US), anticipate their needs, call them by their names and lots of other duties.These companies paid your tickets, reimbursed exams and visa. They also treated crew much better than my first company and still the amount of work and pressure was enormous. After all i look back and still see the good things about working onboard, but I realize now it's about time to move on. Ship life forces you to live a double life, cuz you're always traveling, so you can never settle or think long term, that's become unbearable for me to keep going back to the ship. The money is good and I see many people who do not have better opportunities in their country working on board to survive and raise their kids. I will always miss my good friends from the ship and the places I've visited, but I can't stand working that much and losing my health again. And they definitely pollute a lot, oh god we know it, one of the companies I’ve worked for was in probation due to dumping untreated water in the sea and also got a brutal fine. And after a while they started to greenwash their product, banning plastic straws and stupid policy of asking guests to reuse towels, that’s bullshit, guests paying 10,000 per person a cruise having to cut on luxuries? They shouldn’t quit plastic bottles they should quit the whole industry if they really want to do something bout the environment. Many of my guests didn’t give a shit about environment, asking to change all sheets and towels every day or buying tons of cacaria and leaving enormous quantity of garbage behind them. This industry exists because there are rich and bored people willing to spend their money on that.

While compared to US standards, yes these workers are exploited. When compared to the standards of other countries, working on a cruise ship provides the opportunity for them to raise their economic status, and workers are grateful. If cruises raised prices in order to raise worker wages & conditions to normal US standards, two things would happen: 1) Less people would cruise, reducing the number of cruise jobs available, and 2) Cruise ships having to pay higher wages would only hire American, Canadian, UK, and Australian workers, to provide the most fluent experience for guests.

Thus having first letter as caps it is being shown for most and every respect to Him and only Him.

I apologize Muhammad I didn't even know that I hadn't capitalized Allah, I apologize to Muslims and to God for my mistake. Thank you very much for your answer, brother :)

@@MuhammadHamzaRana Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't God/Allah have no gender in mainstream Islam? It's not an anthropomorphic entity, as far I learned in college.
