Agree on Cayman and Monaco, St. lucia is 10 acres undeveloped. St. Lucia is also 0.25% real property with no limit. US Virgin is also no limit, so a $10,million home is $75,000 as against $60,000 here. The fact is the number of homes over the $60,000 bracket is small and the limit can easily be increased. Even reducing the increase to 0.25% on any amount over $6.3 million is beneficial.
So you cry a river for the extremely wealthy. Strange. Most other places have no caps and charge higher amounts, so i assume those wealthy people will be selling their other 10 and moving here!!!
Whilst i am happy the man is getting the help needed, shouldn't the work place have insurance to cover this and therefore the insurance should pay the Government back what was spent. On NHI, i believe that we should have fully free medical care, as long as Government can get out of its own way and actually make it work rather then have everything looking like PMH.
Sounds like an argument my great grand father made when they brought in cars and stopped using horses. Cars can run out of gas, maybe the gas won't be delivered and then we would come to a grinding halt. If we have no electricity for a long time, the last of peoples worries will be documents.
Yes, i have to pay my insurance and then taxes to contribute to theirs (they are not paying full). They strike all the time and the news they give is laughable. There is no need for them
If the stories on Gibson are true he should be gone. I expect we shall find out in the next couple of months, as i expect if true the Government will be pressing charges. If not then they were just election fodder.
I am sure i am going to say this many times in the next few weeks. But what happened to ready to govern from day 1. It now appears we will have to wait a while whilst they find out what actually needs to be done.

Mr. Ferguson says for the most part a number of times. Does he mean 60% or 99.9%.
