Watch the PM shake an orange tree now, so no apples fall

Dawes says...

What happened in parliament today was a complete embarrassment for the nation. The speaker should be ashamed. The Government should just admit they want to portray the image that they are taking this seriously, however no one else is allowed to talk and only they can set the narrative. That rather enforces the idea we are corrupt to our core. Well done Speaker in showing you usual impartiality as is required by the post.

Dawes says...

Why doesn't the consumer protection commission lead by example and provide 100,000 bags free to Bahamians. Maybe cancel the Christmas parties to pay for it?

Dawes says...

Lol this is some great maths by Inland Revenue.

Dawes says...

Would be a good idea for you to set up a retail company and not charge those excessive prices. You would become the go to retail store and put all the others out of business. Why not show them how its done!!!

You are correct. In the first year it is a nominal fee. But the next year you then pay 0.75% (assuming sales below $5 million) for the year just gone and then 0.75% for the year to come. So in effect 2 years in one go

Dawes says...

They do need to rezone areas, however they also need to work out proper transport links, schools etc etc. If they add an extra 30,000 people out east there will be gridlock, same with out west or anywhere. Unless they fix the roads first. Of course we broke so that ain't happening.

Only those connected get refunds. The rest can wait until they have got them selves into a position that their new tax obligation is more then the refund. If that is 10 years then so be it

Dawes says...

Another policy from Government where they get the private sector to do the job the Government should do. All along Government increase their fees and do nothing to reduce their expenditures.
