Reply To: JoCo Cruise Crazy 3: Get excited and talk about things!
While I haven’t done the math, I suspect that most goods and even many services we consume every day are provided to us by people making the same or less than the folks on cruise ships. An optimist might therefore say that going on a cruise is no worse than living our daily lives as Americans*. A pessimist will say that going on a cruise is no better than living our daily lives as Americans*.
*By Americans I mean “folks rich enough to go on a cruise”. I don’t mean to exclude anyone who had the misfortune to be born in an inferior country.
