Wonder what will happen when all the major wholesalers and grocery stores shut down...hope all those small hole in the wall convenience stores can buy direct from suppliers for sufficient discounts and economies of scale to bring in massive bulks of product at the low prices we get now...would love to see each individual corner shop buying piece by piece in small batches from Florida. It works...go for it...give it a shot...even before VAT is introduced, government is killing major businesses...guess what...prices will go up even more...

Definitely a very poorly written article...as someone familiar with aviation this article even confused me...the syntax is deplorable. My only guess is that the paper restricted the writer to 10 words or less. When a plane lands properly the main gear under the wings touch first and once the plane slows down further the nose gear makes contact...at which point this pilot passed out or blacked out...the article itself is terrible.

A fine example of what's possible when your buddies are in power in government...things get 'overlooked'...

Is this the same building that is being set up to be 'rented' out to government for office space? I smell a rat...

What boggles my mind as well is that Ishmael was a partner in a major accounting firm...Price Waterhouse...no small name. He would have been paid dearly as a managing partner, he had funds to pay the tax, but didn't...but he is a top accountant...and just ignores paying taxes. Yet we are going to have to depend on these same accountants to keep our books in balance and check on our VAT contributions...they are also the ones at the end of the day after assessing your business with an audit that come up with a total to base your business taxes off of...and yet the very individuals working up your 'taxes' for you, just don't pay the taxes themselves. I would be curious to have each law firm and each accountancy firm come out with a statement that none of their managing partners are behind on any of their taxes owed to government. Maybe that should be a prerequisite for practicing law or for being a chartered accountant...you need to lead by example and have no outstanding bills, otherwise you cannot practice what you preach!!
