Can anyone save us from these incompetent buffoons? Mr. Davis is in charge of a massive ministry, overseeing the largest public works project in the Bahamas and they are not even aware that an insurance policy has lapsed at a nonexistent company? Someone needs to be fired and perhaps charged with a crime. We can not afford much more of this absolute incompetency!

You are absolutely right. It must be stressed that cable is 100% Bahamian owned, with the treasury and NIB currently owning 29%. They should get the next cellular license, if this govt truly believes in Bahamians. I doubt they will get it as this govt loves foreigners and hidden deals more than Bahamians which is a shame.

Why are NIB funds being used to buy ambulances? This is a pension fund, not a fund to pay for capital expenses for the ministry of health. I'm tired of my pension funds being used by the government for other purposes. These funds are sacred and should be used 100% exclusively to fund pensions!

You finally realized you got swing? At least you were man enough to say it. I will not say I told you so.

Reading this made me sick today, even though I knew it was coming. No one will be fired, no one will resign, the same contractor will probably get the job again. No denying it we are a throughly corrupt nation, and this government is corrupt to the core.

Mr. Mitchell is not serious about intelligently and responsibly dealing with our illegal immigration problem. He is serious about duping the Bahamian public! If he wants to fix this problem he would find the funds to repatriate and empty a detention centre that is already suffering from massive overcrowding, where alleged human rights abuses have been taking place. Instead for weeks he has sending out press releases about an exercise in Abaco. It is merely a photo op, and political lip service duping a desperate Bahamas for real results. We deserve so much better. Repatriate those we have already detained, speed up the regularization of those worthy of it, then do the exercise in Abaco.

If Mr. Mitchell spent half the time he does complaining and maligning human rights groups, on addressing these alleged abuses we would not be in the embarrassing mess we are in. And I am tired of him saying "nor is there any official sponsoring of abuse". We all know this, we are not dumb, the question ( never answered) is did these abuses take place and if so how will they be remedied? But he dances around never addressing the issue hoping it will go away or that the Bahamian public is too stupid to see his verbal dodging.

So if a person is unemployed, and therefore earns no salary that can be taxed, will they be covered under NHI?

Instead of targeting children, perhaps we should start treating them humanely Mr. Mitchell. Time to clean up our act it is getting embarrassing.

Is this Union living in some alternate reality? It can not be the Bahamas, take a look at the over 1000 Bahamians waiting in line at the sandals job fair yesterday. One is lucky to have a job today and rather than jeopardizing it through sick outs should be trying to improve their company. Either way it is irrelevant, if digicell or cable Bahamas get the second cellular license they will destroy BTC and the jobs at BTC are gone anyway.
