Go below decks and see where those people live. Disgusting. It is why those ships are not US registered.

Actually, they are foreign registered to avoid union workers, and other onerous regulations.

But ships that call in the US are subject to US health and safety regulations.

I don’t know where you get this “below decks” nonsense from.

“avoid union workers”

Wrong. Where did you get that? No ship in a right to work State ever has to contend with unions, so your statement is blatantly false. The ships do have to contend with union dock workers anyway.

“I don’t know where you get this “below decks” nonsense from.”

Port inspectors. Health inspectors. Federal customs agents. That’s where.
