Your tax dollars pay for Carnival Cruise's  Coast Guard rescues -- but Carnival Cruise pays <="http://teamsternation.blogspot.com/2013/02/btw-carnival-cruise-exploits-workers.html">hardly any taxes.

Oh, and taxpayers also pay for Carnival's owner's basketball arena. Carnival Cruise owner <="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micky_Arison">Micky Arison also owns the Miami Heat, which gets $6.4 million a year in tax subsidies from Miami-Dade taxpayers.


Watch the video -- but prepared to be outraged.
