Also $20 million a year by 17,000 people is $1,176.47 each or $22.63 per week. Now as some have got more then that, there will be a large number on less then that a week. Whilst every increase is good news, lets not make it seem that this is a game changer for people.
So is Doctor Sands saying it is ok if the register is 10 years old, but 14 is too much? He was part of the party who was in charge in 2021, why did they not do anything then?
so wait when jobless rose it wasn't a sign of a shrinking economy, but due to the cylindrical nature of the economy. The old have your cake and eat it by the PM
Fish fry is indicative of Bahamas. Everywhere you go things are dilapidated and or not working, people are doing whatever they want and no one cares. As noted most of us only take visitors to Atlantis or Bahamar or if lucky off island. Government should be embarrassed that over 90% of Bahamians photos from weddings to christenings are done on Bahamar Blvd or on PI, as these are the only places that look good. But hey at least the politicians can do a little dance on the stage so all will be OK.
It won't do this time, but if the fines are large enough it will make sure companies have backups in case things like this go wrong. Like maybe making sure the tow rope is in good condition or maybe a 2nd one.
So wait is this not the job of the police? or are they to just cause traffic jams as they hope to find someone unlicensed. Why a specialist taskforce to do what the police are meant to do. Or is this a public show to make people think something is being done?
Ahh the Bahamas. We must never bad mouth it, even if we can all see it is going down hill. If we speak only good that will be the way people will see it. Whenever someone is honest and shows something that needs to be fixed, we will shoot the messenger and then go back to our fantasy land.
