It is distressing to read such vile negativity upon one’s passing … George, nor any of us are perfect, but he was very accessible and approachable, so all those who have held their tongue for 40 years, only to now vent what they thought of him, are Cowards in the extreme, as there was ample opportunity to say whatever was so vexing to the man’s face … not merely anonymously upon his passing as his Family grieves … rest in peace Brother George … God will forgive you of your sins … just as God “may” perhaps forgive these sad souls for their hypocrisy.
Lyford and Adams are on solid ground here … only question involves integrity of what will soon be a matter for our Judiciary … thankfully we still have the Privy Council.
Being forced to lap up Bowe’s regularly offered financial advice is becoming tiresome … ever since the days of Piracy, The Bahamas has had a culture of not abiding by Laws, much less paying Taxes of any description, as demonstrated by the “wheeling and eating” that occurs daily in virtually every facet of life entailing a financial obligation … “what’s my discount, gimme a break, I ga need a tip to get you straight, you know who I is, etc, etc.”
Nonetheless, there is more than an enough revenue “already” being collected to fund this Country … which means the focus should be not on more Taxes, but rather “cutting expenses” and improving efficiency, neither of which guru Bowe even bothers to mention.
One thing is for sure, no Country can tax itself to prosperity, indeed most developed Countries are desperately trying to “cut” Taxes, not increase, but perhaps Bowe is still reading the history chapters on the “once” Great Civilizations of the World and has yet to get to why they all eventually failed🤷♂️
Munroe is right … and, at art from perhaps fragile and insecure egos, there is no “good” reason to change what is working and has ensured our respectability and standing among Nations.
Why should we go “Third World” by changing a System that we have benefited from both reputation and financial perspectives … indeed we should be actively seeking to strengthen ties with the UK, not distance ourselves.
Reporting wise … Chub Cay is in the Berry Islands, not Exuma.
On the premise that the rest of the reporting is fairly accurate, there is “no way” 2 people in a tiny 15’ “open” Boston Whaler would not know if one had fallen overboard, so the remaining person’s account that he does not know when the other fell overboard simply does not add up.
