Developers have always had a tough go at making money in the Bahamas. The country is littered with failed developments. Only the Cruise Ships have found a work around.
Listen I’ve seen pike corporation work in Florida. It’s top notch. They are replacing and hardening transmission lines for FPL. If picked they are more than capable of replacing Providence Island grid. I suspect they will use mostly their crews with some jobs available to Bahamians. Now with that said you also need electrical generation. They can’t help there.
Well it could be worse. "The Zahrani power plant, the last and only plant still providing electricity in Lebanon, reportedly shut down on Saturday, Sawt Beirut International reported on X, citing Lebanon's electric corporation, lectricit du Liban."
If Pike hires all union BPL workers to do the rebuilding of BPL infrastructure which said union employees are already doing what is going to change about said infrastructure?
Florida has recreational pot on the ballot in November. With the Vice President entering the race is sure to bring out the Democratic voters. I say it's likely to pass. Just saying. Then What?
So we tax them and they say goodbye. Cruise Ships don't need Nassau, they'll just bypass Nassau on their way to their private Islands. I believe they have the capacities to build a make believe Nassau on their Islands. If Disney can build a world class adventure city on a Florida swamp the cruise companies can recreate a fake Nassau without the crime and blighted area.
