Well said, true observations. Barbarians (bajans) happily return after education/carreers abroad. Do Bahamians?

Is it no wonder legitimate foreign investors refuse to work with Bahamas Government?
Is it no wonder only Bigger Financial & Narco Criminals are willing?
What Say You, People? This is your legitimate government?
Wonder what Burke got to abandon $1m lawsuit.

This should be the law. Understandably, is it not bad enough that the cruise ships control the cash, food, water, beds, drink & entertainment on board, as well as access to excursions? They also control their passengers time (& funds) on land. While providing a few vendors access to their passengers, at a price.
They mesmerize the Politicos with impressive numbers, restricting access of local supliers in exchange for elimination of their garbage, sewerage, oily bilge & ballast water in our ports.
Sounds like a wonderfull one-sided relationship... for Them.

There are many means to squash dissenting conversation by the Political Elite. You have witnessed one this week. In a Democracy, Opposition has to be given equal time. But it requires proper, parliamentary behavior, courteous recognition & value by ALL. Evidently this is not the case here, as mentioned the Speaker is a Referee, Not a Player. Party over Patria become Cults.

How about some "In the Sunshine" series of laws & rules with bite. How about starting with financial statements from Politicians (& Public Service Managers), as presently on the books & conveniently ignored.
Starting at the top, a trickle down theory which may work?
