...wow, how can you rise everyday with that gloomy fore and overcast? if i were you, i'd leave. i'd never subject my spirit to oscillate in a culture that is the antithesis of who i am; hell no.

1Life2Live says...

correct!

NO! You're 'hogwashed' and whatever else washed. Parents have the right to forbade their kids from any medium they determine as undermining, period! JoeBlow is NOT insufferable, you are not accountable.

1Life2Live says...

I blame the Minster of Education
I blame the Principles of both schools
I blame MOST importantly, the parents; especially the one of the decedent.

All the signs of expressed AGENCY required were there and ZERO action was employed. 2-lives permanently vacated. Had the 16-yrs. old murderer been in the USA, he would be on 'Death Row' for premeditated murder. Yes, trailed as an adult and in maximum security.

All the senseless murders that happen in that country is abominable. It's not anything as I I knew it back btwn 1958 - 1968. That country use to be ...ahhhhmazingly awesome! From overseas, since 1968, I've observed, ...watched, the deterioration of that country. I've not been there in decades and have zero intentions of returning. Don't know if that country will ever find its way back from its self-inflicted, self-imposed, abyss. The country has become the murdering fields. SAD!

Minimum wage in that country must be at the minimum $12.50/hr for the Main Island and $10.00/hr for the other Islands in order to give the folks a fighting chance.

1Life2Live says...

Generate jobs for your people, 3,700 are unemployed on that main island. Employ those folks. We have 3.5% unemployment in the USA. Who isn't working, does not wish to work! Crime goes down when everyone is at work and making money. Develop opportunities = employment = - lower crime.

√ ... a well written article. Ditto!

History of the Bahamas as I know it:
1.) 1967 PLP wins the Election and began to dismantle the establishment at its core.
2.) less than 6 yrs. later, departed from the Crown: hugely disastrous mistake! BLOCK oversight ... to enable criminal activities to flourish without checks and balances.
3.) PLP government encouragement of drugs, violation of investment banks, and investors.
4.) fixed Elections were rampant for at the minimum, 20 yrs.
5.) during the atrocious governance of Lynden Pindling (Jamaican) ... the country slip into anarchy and low-rent activities; flagged by the world as dangerous and repugnant.
6.) 1987, after 20 yrs. of bondage, the Bahamas people saw a glimmer of light.

fast forward:
The USA is boasting, at the end of its fiscal 2018 ...around 3.5% unemployment! The lowest since 1969. How is it that Bahamas has 11% unemployment? Why? That racist government has predominantly alienated countless sound investors. Let the Chinese, Cubans, Venezuelans and other industrious cultures into the country to do business; diversify!
Bahamas is a gem if it were:
a.) obliterate its profound criminal element. Get that under control ... too many murders!
b.) immigrate other nationalities from South America into that country; they are industrious and enterprising.
c.) stem ... stop the Haitians from coming into that country. They are the biggest problem.
STOP their strangulation of the culture.

That country is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy toooooooooooooooooooo tiny small to be slammed with all the murders, rapes, and theft. Your unemployment is skyrocketed. Your immigration is the disaster. Too many Haitians. Lighten up the place and bring in Cubans. Turn that place into a small Miami or Columbia. It will help your economy. STOP the Haitians and Jamaicans. Bring in the Cubans and Columbians and Venezuelans. At least they can work in that country. build your economy. Offer citizenship to the wealthy people in South America to setup shop in that country.

For God sake go back to the Crown. Bermuda is in GREAT shape!

Instead of importing Haitians, invest in Cubans. You have tooo many 'hi-shen' voodoo...wicked. They have spoiled the country; disgusting. That country use to be amazing in the 60's and the beginning of the 70's...before 1973. You should never, not ever have gone independent!

Why won't you RETURN to the CROWN? Why NOT!? Tooo much of your corrupt government would be revealed?

You don't have any jobs for your citizens ... riddled with crime ... corruption haven. RETURN to the CROWN; save yourselves!
