These politicians have no spine, worse than a jellyfish. We need a tax on sodas and fast food in this country now! Consumption of these harmful products will fall while at the same time generating much needed government revenues to pay for the consequences of these ultra processed foods. Why should the profits from these harmful products be privatized while the cost to treat these chronic preventable diseases that they spawn be socialized (placed on the Bahamian taxpayer)?
This is why I have boycotted Rubis. Their behavior in this matter has been shameful, I refuse to patronize them anymore. Not good corporate or environmental citizens at all.
Happy morning to cruise port shareholders, today is payday for the more than 3,000 Bahamian shareholders who are sharing in the incredible success of the port and participating in the wealth creation of our beloved Bahamaland. A 21% dividend pay rate is exceptional, onward to even greater heights this year!
Taxpayers in this country are getting ripped off! Greedy old people squeezing out the young. This double dipping (receiving a salary and pension) should be illegal.
