On behalf of ALL Abaconians ... thank you ... Rotary for actually “doing” as opposed to “talking” ... and the placement at “Treasure Cay” is appropriate given it was the location of the 1st Rotary Club established in Abaco, which used to meet at the (once “pride of the Caribbean”) Hotel, unfortunately demolished in the 80’s and most regrettably never rebuilt with the consequential effect that Treasure Cay has languished ever since in desperate need of re-birth.
The twisting interpretations and special exemptions that are permitting certain businesses to sell clearly non-essential products is undermining and prolonging this whole curfew/lock down effort, as clearly their are businessmen and women out there that value a couple of dollars more than even their own family’s health and lives, much less the health and lives of others. Bottom line is Govt. needs to address the nonsense going on ASAP, as the same Rules must apply to ALL, “essential” businesses ONLY, all others stay home just like everyone else so we can ALL re-Open once it is safe to do so!
This is a simple case of the “haves” vs the “have nots” and all the PM was getting at is that many of these “have nots” made the “haves” and did not inherit a business like Mr. Myers or live in Gated Communities like him and the Partners of Graham Thompson and McKiiney Bancroft ... that’s it, just in his words “be humane”, nothing more ... forgo your Country Club Memberships and perhaps unlike Nancy Pelosi, even give up Ice Cream ... that’s all ... at least until we get through this, then of course you are free to let capitalism rein again!
No Power since 1st September ... coming up on 8 months and counting ... and this ain’t Ragged Island, rather the No. 2 contributor to the Public Treasury ... nearing time for Bannister and all others connected with recovery effort to resign ... not in shame, rather disgrace with a life ban on ever holding Public Office again!
Our biggest issues in pulling ourselves out of this mess entail inherent dishonesty, poor work ethic and a “D” average work force ... which together with a historical lack of accessible capital make solutions from the very few entrepreneurial brains extremely hard to come up with, much less implement.
Something not ringing true with this Story! There is simply no way the US would jeopardize their relationship with us, much less their various interests in this Country (Autec, Coast Guard, DEA, Embassy, etc. not to mention Private Investments) over something so petty.
