I agree with Mr. Burrows, the government must reduce the red tape to allow businesses to operate efficiently, in order to compete. As a business owner, from my perspective, successive governments are to say the least, not friendly to business. At times it seems the government, and their agents have a very cynical view of business, almost taking pleasure in gumming up the system, to make running a successful business impossible. This must change to allow businesses to thrive, otherwise businesses will fail, one after the other in the face of this type of competition

Why did Izmirlian have to go to the US for justice? The answer to that question is a severe indictment our our justice system.

"The state of the country's infrastructure, transmission, and distribution lines is strained, trying to meet the high demand for power from homes and businesses". Nonsense, excuses, BPL has been having these issues for 50 years. Bottom line, the people who running that company, top to bottom, are simply incompetent and must be replaced.

"if you repeat a lie enough times people would believe it". This describes Trump exactly. The man lies constantly and I think he believes his own lies. The folks who believes those lies he spews, constantly, probably believes the world is flat and Elvis is still alive. 🤔

Dogmatic beliefs based on books and ancient texts written by MEN purported to have been inspired by god thousands of years ago. No thank you!

All this talk about the fire at the power plant being an opportunity, a clean slate, or use renewable energy, etc. is all very amusing. I find it amazing that when disasters like that happens at BPL, and they happen frequently, the first thing is said is why are they not installing solar or renewable energy is the solution. No, solar is not the solution to the problem. Even if 100% solar is installed, the fundamental problem will still exist, and that is BPL itself. There are fundamental flaws in BPL that must first be addressed, like for example, being able to maintain a power plant, without having catastrophic failures like this one. If they can't even maintain and properly run a power plant that uses 100 year old technology without it burning to the ground, I have zero confidence in their ability operate renewable energy plants of the magnitude required to power Andros, not to mention the rest of the Bahamas. Let's start fixing the fundamental problems first. Successive governments have been skirting around this issue for decades. It high time that we address it now.

As the owner of a low margin business, I say it about darn time they change the business license tax regime. The current system is extremely unfair to low margin businesses, who effectively pay a very high percentage of their net income in taxes, while the high margin businesses, get away with paying much less. The Business license tax system is a very regressive tax system that has been detrimental to businesses for decades and should have been changed many years ago.

WTH?!? LOL!!

Munroe's reasoning makes no sense, despite his wordsmiting and sophistry. What is the purpose of the age of consent otherwise?
