True. But foreign investors didn't do this to us. We did it to ourselves. We traded our personal values and morale for the foreign dollar. The problem is.... Bahamians are for sale and can be bought for a particular price. Most of today's crime problem is predicated upon an illegal drug culture. Ironically this very same drug culture was introduced to the Bahamas under Sir Lynden Pindling and the PLP when he was bought by Joe Lehder for a price. What we are seeing in the Bahamas today is the fruits of seeds sown long ago! The rooster has come home to roost. You can't shake hands with the devil and expect your country to prosper. Satan has a price.... and his price has always been in blood.
Furthermore, the problem with foreign investors is that they don't need the Bahamas.... however, because we are a small country and our GDP in the Bahamas is based upon a foreign market, we need foreign investors (every country does to a certain degree). The entire global economic system including banking and commerce has been consolidated. As a result, we cannot simply abandon foreign investment in an effort to stand on our own two feet....after all... they're not the problem! We..... the dishonest Bahamians..... we're the problem.
Long story short.... read the history books carefully and note that blacks were the ones who sold blacks into slavery. When Europeans initially landed in Africa, they met factions from different tribes waring with one another. In other words... we blacks have always contributed to our own destruction. Yet, rather than taking responsibility for our own actions or inactions we choose to blame the white man, or the foreign investor. Even in America.... the majority of blacks that are killed on a daily basis are killed by other blacks. Yet they conveniently ignore this fact and cry racism. I'm not saying that racism doesn't exist in America because it certainly does! But we're doing more damage to ourselves than any foreign investor or white man can do. We need to shoulder a lot of the blame for what goes on in our own country and stop passing the blame. When WE the people change, then our country will change.
Yeah..... but at this point Fred and the PLP really don't care. They know they've got approximately three years to secure their retirement my sapping and leaching our pockets dry (not to mention the country). Come election 2017 Perry and Fred will be drinking scotch, smoking cigars, and thanking Bahamians for a lifetime of ignorance.
Where is the idiotic, PLP sympathizer who calls himself generalcrazy???
I seem to recall him being adamantly vocal during the Darron Cash fiasco! In matters pertaining to the FNM he spared the Bahamas no opinionated foolery predicated upon stupidity. But now that the PLP has begun the disintegrating process that will undoubtedly result in their defeat in three years; he seems to have gone mute! I guess BEC has his light and internet off.
You may have tried to pass yourself off as a nonpartisan observer "generalcrazy".... but your bias and the truth is obvious!! You're just another spineless, shifty, illiterate, uncultured, primitive, trifling uncultivated PLP fool!!
What an obnoxious statement to make. Who would knowingly board the titanic with accurate knowledge of its fate? The SS PLP with it's disillusioned captain and crew is a sinking ship. The implementation of VAT alone has sealed their defeat in 2017. And now Keith Bell unwittingly makes certain the demise of the PLP with a ridiculous statement indicating that he has plans to contend for Fort Charlotte.
Well let me assure you Mr. Bell..... if VAT alone didn't disqualify the PLP's for future consideration; your presence certainly will.
Don't be upset sweetheart. I'm sure he's in Las Vegas conducting business on behalf of the Bahamian people. I'm certain that his indolent promises to assure, reassure, makesure, and insure the success of Bahamians is at the top of his agenda.
Where is that stink mouth generalcrazy??? Now that the PLP is showing signs of dissension and disintegration, you can't hear from him! While he tries to pass himself off as a nonpartisan observer; he's nothing more than another illiterate PLP supporter.
