Well, I was partial to this fella when, in opposition, he spoke on the application of VAT on top of customs duty.

I gave up on him when he I saw him on TV jeering LBT. Then he raised VAT. Then he witnessed his friend hog donated generators after the hurricane and did nothing.

He did try a little bit of fiscal austerity, but then he got booted. Yep, the long standing matters were kept in the freezer until it was time. KARMA.

But those left have gone wild with the spending.

Your time to make a difference has passed.

Right you are. He was quite content to go with the flow and keep his mouth shut on so many important matters as long as he had a good seat on the gravy train. Why he thinks his telling remarks can a difference now is beyond me too.

And, no, the housing thing is not fair. But age discrimination is allowed. You just have to peruse the newspaper to see how many age-restrictive job offers are printed.

Also there is a roving 50+ population who see themselves displaced and told they are overqualified. I have actually seen an termination letter where the employee was told she was too old, while she was in fact the most competent in her position.

The constitution does not offer age and gender discrimination protection, so the talk show callers say,

According to your reasoning a taxi parking only is also unconstitutional!! So are senior citizen lines. . .crown lands. . .must I go on? Also, why only persons with taxi plates allowed to carry people for money? Plenty of us have cars. . .why can't we carry people for pay too? Why only those who government told they can carry people for money can do so?? We are all Bahamians with constitutional rights!! See how silly that agument sounds??

Shut that line of reasoning down because you nor Turnquest can follow it to the logical conclusion. . .none of you!!

The program is open to all persons in that catagory who can find the money to participate in the sceme!!

He is right. Astute comments from someone who I hope our country will not "throw away", ignore, or force into leaving the country.

Not so! He's just as wrong as Lanisha Rolle in doing what he's doing now. You just don't keep silent about things you know are fundamentally wrong while you're a cabinet member only to later wag your tongue about them once you've been removed from office.

Peter Turnquest was simply incompetent as a finance minister. A campaign general of a current senior FNM cabinet minister explained in a post the scheme he was involved.

There are dozens of benefits that I fund with my tax dollars that I don’t qualify for. Based on your logic The food and 100 $ they are handing out as covid relief - I am entitled to as well. The free garbage collection some get I am entitled to as well then. The grants they give to some students, then I am entitled to it as well. The grants they give student nurses then every student at UB should have it as well... the list goes on. The difference is that person over 45 are mad they don’t qualify.

Furthermore, Mr Turnquest could talk all he wants now. You were the DPM and Minister of Finance why didn’t u find the fu****** money for these things and all of GB’s needs when u where there. You were a shitty MP even if an alright Minister of Finance.

Ouch!!!

**According to polling by The Institute of Politics** just released on Wednesday, June 9, has roughly **two-thirds** of the just now being discovered **Gated Communities atheists** who believe that the **underlying force of evil** has not yet finished with bitin' chunks out of the former contestant for the **unfair evil** played out on the floor of red party's convention **when KP was up against Comrade Sister Loretta for deputy leader the red party.** How sweet-a-bite that **Comrade Karma,** can be, yes?

Those of us who are not people's time voters knew that all along. Now he knows.

Roc wit doc so smart. he said, 18-year-old professionals.

birdiestrachan I think there's a much bigger picture behind this situation. I think Minnis main issue is he doesn't want that particular subdivision looking like another Nassau Village or Pinewood Gardens in a next decade or two.

Must disagee with Turnquest here. This is black crab syndrome at work. So no encouragement then for students to become young Bahamian dentists, engineers, accountants, air traffic controllers? I guess not.
Listen up students, just get ya D average and suck teet. That's what your entitled to as a striving studious Bahamian. Nothing. Dont waste your time. Make sure your phone got all the Regae downloaded. That's what matters in this life.

The doctor when he found out that people were against his discrimination against certain
people, He said it included barbers and hairdressers some folks know better.

The problem is the PM can not use the taxpayer's money to discriminate

When he opens his real estate office he can do whatever he wishes.

You forget, prior to the PM's job, he held the position of leader of the red party opposition, and also was for years a major leaguer in the millions dollars Lessor **(Agpapautang)** to the governing PLP, yes?

is it justice for D graders and those who listen to Reggie music be made to pay taxes so
that those who are favoured by the PM be allowed tax breaks and special upper class
lots.

Then he says he is the poor from Bains town

These comments are spot on! I just find it sad that former Ministers can only find their voice after losing their lofty positions in Government. This isn’t Dr. Minnis’s first discriminatory decision. He’s been making them for a while now particularly in his role as Incompetent Authority. Time’s up! He gatta go!

And replace him with who??????? .............. the OG of the PLP???

There is the big problem. . .who will be able to keep the PLP criminal behaviour in check among that party?

The FNM party would have us to beieve that the "retarded" style of government in its party is because of doc!!

That is the primary question on the lips of voters right now. . .goofy or the beagle boys! He he he he he!!
