Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival Corporation made over $3 billion in profit last year. Their effective tax rate was barely 3%.

A nurse in Ohio paid more in taxes last year than one of the largest leisure companies on the planet.

It is not a loophole. It was designed this way on purpose, lobbyed for, protected, renewed quietly every single year.

You paid for the port they sail out of. They just forgot to say thank you.

Creator's Tips & Advice
