I am not going to bat for Mr. Wilson or the PLP but you'll miss the whole point. What he is saying is "take the log out of your eyes and then you will be able to see more clearly to take the speck out of someone else's eye".On human rights, no other country have a prison full of alleged terrorists who have not seen a judge to determine innocence or guilt. We have an extradition law that works in one direction. Numerous Bahamians have been extradited to the USA but not one US citizen extradited to the Bahamas. We were pressured to do away with our bank secrecy laws when the same laws exist in the US. On corruption, a former speaker of the House was charge with violating Federal Banking Laws paying hush money to a young man whom he molested. Yes he is on his way to jail but you'll need to remember that a 200 plus year old democracy is more mature than a 43 year old democracy.

As a businessman I to experience this folly, the only difference is I made my payment on time and it was a mistake by Inland Revenue. The penalty is absurd. The problem occurs when you have bureaucrats who don't have the slightest idea on how to ran a business making critical decision that impacts on businesses. First they force me to collect their taxes then punish me for not doing it on time.

I have reserve judgement on Dr. Minnis because all I know about him is what the media has painted him to be. I refuse to allow someone else opinion to become my opinion without my own careful analysis. What I do now about him is that he is not a slick talking politician which is a plus in my book. From paper boy to doctor is quite a story.I will continue to place him in the balance and my analysis will determine in my own mind if he is wanting, not the media with several conflicting agendas.

If you understand anything about patent is that they eventually expire.Once they expire anyone with the means can produce the patented drug. Aspirin once ago also had a patent. Patents are enforceable in the Bahamas so if there is a valid claim take it up with the courts.

The Bahamas ia not ready for a woman Prime Minister. We are not even ready to give women equal rights.Women themselves are voting against themselves when it comes to equal rights and you believe we will vote for a woman PM.

DEDDIE says...

Lets suppose Minnis resigns. LBT is not a good option. We can't get equal rights for women in this country and you'll think the average Bahamian will vote for a woman to become Prime Minister. What is so ridiculous, you have women voting against themselves not to obtain equal rights.

DEDDIE says...

For those pushing LBT, you have to be out of your mind to believe the Bahamas is ready for a women PM. When you have women voting against themselves when it comes to equal rights, you gotta be kidding. All you have to do is listen to talk radio to realized we have quite a distance to go.

Our politician are not too smart. How in the world do you put it out in the public domain that you have the banking information on someone with the type of bacon that Bacon has.Our banking sector is already in the dump because of dumb politicians. You don't think that the democrats know whats in Donald Trump tax returns but not one of them would commit political suicide by doing what our politicians would threaten to do.

DEDDIE says...

I am anxiously waiting to see if anyone from the PLP would do like wise.
