Guess Da cash was going missing ay

Majority of the public use cash, whats going on with that? It is like the Georgia elections, you are making it hard for black people to be apart of the system. The majority of our population is black and the majority of blacks use cash, so I guess you are.trying to discriminate against blacks.

Minnis say if you don’t have a credit card, you have to go by his friend, one Dr Rogers, ( yes Dr Rogers) place and make the payment. Then go back to the police for your tings. Persons licensing cars, guns getting birth certificates etc prepaire. The passport office is already mostly cashless and you have to pay online for some passports

Probably as unconstitutiinal as the Covid authority excersice with power is as I can guess "payment in any denomination IA a part of our law." This cashless new world order s posing before our eyes like the parting of the RedSea was challenged in EU court system where it lost Constitutionally.

Part of the depopulation agenda. As people realize more and more that they are dogs instead of humans, they will choose not to reproduce.

Government world order control and nosyness. Totally dumb, and universally illegal.

Government can never refuse its own government tender. Central Bank cannot be in on this.

There are pros and cons to this, but for all the inconveniences this will truly cause to us, I truly believe now it will be harder for the employees of these agencies to STEAL. Now the monies that are supposed to be collected will finally end up in the consolidated funds of the Bahamas. Now it should be easy to be transparent and show the country how much money each agency is collecting on our behalf on a yearly basis. There should be an update every year.

The consolidated fund is a big joke. There is NO transparency. The big shots are just looking for more to steal themselves!

Wow! A government readily admitting that it is so rife with fraud that it can no longer accept even our country's own currency in the form of cash.

And Minnis seems quite willing for his most impoverished and downtrodden plebes to be thrown to the wolves, i.e. the very greedy banks and other financial institutions that impose exorbitant fees on the poorest among us.

Yup, Minnis is indeed about as evil and heartless as they come.

Global reset. This is a poke in the eye for those who see. The permanently blind miss nothing and can never see the light. This is nothing about Police tiefin cause no investigation was mentioned. Global reset with Covid as the activation fuel. More drastic changes to come.

This is simply a way to funnel or privatize some of the central government's revenue collection. What is needed is improve internal controls, computerization and effective prosecution of wrong-doers. The media simply transcribes what is said. They don't question anything. They won't dare ask who are the owners and who will be the ultimate beneficiaries of these decisions.

Government refusing to accept the money it issues (which BTW is the only legal tender)? What is this?

There may be a serious constitutional question here in terms of the government's ability to refuse to accept Bahamian currency notes and coins as legal tender. The same goes for every enterprise in the Bahamas that requires a government licence of any kind to conduct its business with the public.

Has the Bahamian government decided that Bahamian currency notes and coins minted at the expense of Bahamian taxpayers are no longer required to be accepted as legal tender in The Bahamas? Is physical Bahamian currency now very deliberately being made worthless by our very own Bahamian government?

Are most governments around the world doing the same thing, not because of their fears about fraud, but rather, because of their intense desire to completely do away with the financial privacy still enjoyed by the holders of currencies in the form of physical notes and coins, albeit sadly to a much lesser extent these days?

Anyone get the feeling that big governments everywhere are trying to control every aspect of our lives these days (tongue in cheek)?

This is a good move by the government. There have been reports of rampant corruption in government departments over the years, removing the temptation of tens of thousands of cash dollars will almost certainly cut down on theft by state employed workers and at the same time greatly increase efficiency and convenience for those needing these services. I suspect that the only people who will object will be those who stand to lose an unofficial extra income that they had enjoyed up to now. This same scenario has just played out at RTD where the licensing process has got so much easier and better in every way.

Whether government employees steal cash before it gets into the public treasury or after it gets into public treasury really makes no difference, aside from the fact that a different set of government employees will be benefitting from the theft. There's a much bigger picture here that we should all be most concerned about, especially now that our Central Bank is pushing the Sand Dollar as a 'virtual' crypto currency.

Agree with @tribanon. Its the small fries who steal the 500 dollars in cash from the draw. The big *tieves* do it by way of billions of dollars in contracts.

At least you get to vote for the big thief. LOL

These people are DISGUSTING. Does everyone have to be inconvenienced because government can neither find honest employees nor has the ability to monitors its own operations? Sheesh! Says so much about our government and our people!!!

@DDK, especially our tiefin people who can’t save 25 cents a week and can’t manage a credit card, if they qualify, to save their lives.
You talk about being inconvenienced, I find it very inconvenient to have to stand in line for two hours or more to renew my drivers license or pay a bill.
You don’t seem to have a problem using technology to make inane posts on this site, try using it for something more productive occasionally.

😜😜😜

Government sheep loyalist.

This suggests that **thirty-three percent** PopoulacesCommeners' at large (PCAL), are to face **restrictive access** to Passports, yes?

A 'No cash' policy is becoming more & more common in a lot of countries. I think Denmark is now almost a cashless country. Quite a few government facilities in the US will no longer accept cash (personal cheque or credit card only), such as DMV, Passport Office etc.

@ComradeBob'sUncle, also, whats with reports about Sheeps running wild all over Long Island since the reds Comrade Adrian, got elected to the House. So, are the Sheeps', not a common nuisance, for Long Islanders, yes?

Yes, digital banking makes interest profits usind cards. There is a financial war going on cash being eaten by digital new world reset order new normal. The Chinese war against the USA cash dollar.

Ludicrous, that all cumputer generated platforms are being targeted in most advanced nations including USA fuel supply lines, international meat processors hijacked for ransomeware. This government sure has failed the dumbest of dumbest test.

Imagine the creators of the software holding Bahamas digital money system hostage four one billion dollars, we cannot say we didn't see it coming. Dumb lab rats marching us into the deep end of crazy.

Imagine our dumb leaders placing our Bahamas in digital then hack boom. All money gone. A set up for stupid fools we put in power.

I see your mind is still in that dark hairy place that you previously referred to and your brain is still spinning like a nut on a worn screw.
I suppose you’re one of those who drives from place to place with a wad of dollars and a pocket full of loose change to pay your bills?
Do you not have a credit or debit card or are you so deep in that dark hairy place where cash only is accepted?

How can government force itself to make Credit Card companies richer or cash exchangers. We pay interest using CC. I question my self interest against government loyalty. Seems you follow the Pied Piper but this honey the gov is dashing upon us smells like $hit.

Recall the leaders who sold their souls to the devil in March 17/2020 promised New and Emerging Technologies and promise of a New Normal after the pandemic, well now maybe the blind can see that Covid, economic collapse, the rise of new millionaires was all a plan to control and impoverish the secure middle class that arise under the PLP and old FNM. When their souls become aware of the lives they have destroyed there will be no mercy for them. They shall get returned to their families and suicides will follow leaders,as with Hitler.
