I 'understand' there was a recent television documentary indicating substantial money exchanged hands between U.S. interests and Bahamas Government officials leading to the ban on shark fishing??
Also, despite its slight decline in popularity, shark fin soup is still a Chinese favourite!
The bahamas government really needs to do much more to ensure that all water sports and tour operators are property regulated. What a horrific occurence.
On the subject of squandering The People's money, so-called "Democratic" governments MOST of the World-over, from The U.K., to France to the U.S., to South Africa, to Barbados, to The Bahamas, have forgotten that the system of taxation is meant to provide funds to governments for looking after those in their care, the population at large. In many instances, particularly in THIS Country, tax money is used to provide jobs to provide votes, the rest is squandered according to the whim of the day. In the U.S. the majority is now used to feed their military war machine, which employs thousands and thousands of uniformed people to kill and be killed. In the meantime, health care, education and infrastructure crumbles around them. What do The People of the Nations do in response to this theft by governments? They vote for "the other" party next go round!

This on-going post office issue is just too ridiculous and has already cost The People plenty arms and legs. Enough is enough.
