This sounds like these buffoons are just taking this opportunity to use some new “big words”!

Consider their actions day to day, nothing suggests they care at all about the regular people.

“These remains have to be located, recovered and processed according to the highest international and humanitarian standards.”

Just about fell out of my chair laughing!

What in the Bahamas, has ever, I mean ever , been done to the highest international standard?

Sounds kinda strange, of all ways to end it all,I doubt this is the best choice. My guess is he received some “help”

Try civil war, guess if you are that uninformed you had best use google yourself.

Well if there was ever any question as to why we are all but a “failed state”, one must only read this article and your comment.

So is this Peter Turnquest essentially saying our government can come up with its own estimate of the costs, and so they are to rely upon outside opinion?

What kind of idiot thinks Syrians have been displaced due to climate change?

What planet is she from? What she smoking or drinking?

I’ve heard of really stupid people, but i didn’t think a person could be that uninformed.

Not to worry. Most who had mortgages and jobs in Abaco will not be rebuilding.

Banks are demanding insurance pay out the mortgages. The balance from the policy goes to the homeowner. But banks are saying most don’t qualify for their mortgages anymore given that most jobs are gone do to dorians destruction

Even the grocery store says it won’t be able to maintain full staff or stock as there isn’t a battery g enough market remaining.

I think I will be 10-20 years before Abaco is back to where it was

I disagree. People to lazy to walk is the problem.

As for rule makers consulting with “stakeholders”; that is a slippery slope that usually ends in rules created to serve capitalist interests at the expense of the populous.

Clearly, we want rules that serve the greater good, and if this results in the failure of a few businesses, so be it. People won’t stop eating, so this just means they’re shopping somewhere else. That’s what the free market system is all about.

My top 5:
1) our nation of people with an attitude of entitlement which is not backed up by a history of hard work.
2) our nation of people who are undereducated, narrow minded and in denial about both.
3) our nation of people of which the majority are lazy
4) our nation of people who for the majority would rather scam for money than earn it
5) our nation of people of which a large part are criminals, who commit fraud, embezzlement and rob the government coffers at the elitist levels, rip off the population at the capitalist levels, and commit theft, robbery, murder at the low levels.

We have land, water, good weather, and most of all, we have opportunity; yet we are going nowhere fast. It’s easy to blame someone, or something else. But if only 1000 people each year made something of themselves in an upstanding way, is 25 years that’s 25000 upstanding citizens, employers , parents, neighbors etc etc.
Nobody could prevent 1000 people a year from doing that. In fact nobody could prevent 10000 people a year from doing that.
And yet, obviously this doesn’t happen.
Who’s fault is that? Look in the mirror people!!!!
