Wait theres a company that is meant to maintain the navigational aids around Nassau? They obviously get paid whether they do or not, as the light by Sandy Cay is no longer there and hasnt been for months.

A bigger worry is that yet again the turnout was lousy. The parties need to realize that a growing part of the population has no faith that any party will do anything that will make a noticeable change and as such they are not voting (around 37% didn't vote, which is more then voted for the winner). Unfortunately as long as its FNM and PLP switching who wins they won't care (and no this does not mean i want COI to win, though for this particular election it would have been interesting if they had).

Dawes says...

They don't want you to know. That way they can say they put in the paper and its your fault for not fighting it. By then its too late and they are laughing

The weather wasn't bad on the day in question. If it was an all boats have to remain in port then half the time boats would not be allowed out. The next day it started to get bad. But this was before it got bad.

There is $0 incentive to use Solar here from the Government. You have to go through an approval process that takes months. They have actively said they do not want people to be able to provide more solar then they need which would mean BPL buying it back and they discourage large companies from making the investment as you need even more approval over a certain MW. The fact is Government talks a good talk on climate change, but when it comes down to Government having to make decisions that may cost them or their friends money the answer is always no and we should blame other countries for our issues. Finally URCA is useless, was when it started and even more so now it has grown bigger.

Dawes says...

yes it only applies to cash transactions, but as the letter writer says they received change back, the company was wrong and the balance should be $0

So the only way to fix the roads is to have a by election. We need plenty in Nassau for sure then

Dawes says...

So you are not denying that PLP don't care about the poor and have no plan to help them. Good for you!!!

Does the letter writer not understand that what was said was to show that the USA would do exactly what Israel is doing now? And that he picked Bahamas because we are the closet country to his state? If he was in Washington state then Canada would have been the choice no doubt. The letter writer must see bogeymen at every corner if this is what he immediately thought of

Dawes says...

And yet PLP haven't sold it either, glad you realize they don't know any better as well.
