Comrades! Was there not just one single Conchy Joe - strolling around Potter's Cay that Danielle Barnes could have interviewed as the Bahamaland prepares to celebrate 44 years of Independence?

Conchy Joe's leaving every day. Business declining - so no money to keep them here. So there will be less money for those that remain.

More importantly, Independence Day needs to be renamed Crown Land Day - because it was the day that the CROWN decided to keep our land under their control.

**What does Bahamian Independence mean 44 years later??????? ..................... $8 billion national debt, 130 murders per year, prison-like private homes, D-average education, 25% public school graduation rate, fossil fuel dependency, welfare dependency, gambling dependency, food import dependency, tourism dependency, Out Island decline, fat cat politicians, sterile religion ........... Can we clean it up by the Big50????????**
