There areas many Bahamians living behind gates in Nassau and Freeport as there are foreigners.
Also most of those houses are worth more than 250,000 so they pay real property tax were the poor don't.
They pay hefty Customs Duty on their cars (no regression there).
The foreigner employ Bahamian Accountants and lawyers, lots of VAT 7.5% on $10,000 worth of professional services ($750 +++).
The rich foreigners pay their real property taxes. I am aware of bills up to $50,000 for many big properties. Plus all the NIB they pay for the hundreds of maids, gardners. Not to mention all the service contracts.

Why could they not run a successful bank and give their employees all the time off and benefits that they say that business should.

They should put their money where their mouth is and set an example and show business how it can and should be done............emmmm......let's see the big mouth union leaders do that......bet they can't.
