I agree with Sir Frankie.

Economist says...

While Mr. Smith makes some very good points he seems to have conveniently, or perhaps politically, failed to recognize the fact that the Rating Agencies do this for most countries and large corporations.

They don't suddenly change their criteria when they come to The Bahamas.

The Bahamas failed to meet their criteria and got down graded, it is a simple as that.

Economist says...

Tal, you got that right!

After all these years and this is all we have to show for it. Disappointing, very disappointing.

Economist says...

Strange for a party to have so many candidates withdraw their candidacy.

He is like a man in the desert desperate for water and seeing one mirage of an oasis, with water, after another.

He really believes it. The only problem is that it isn't true, it is just a mirage.

Economist says...

This is typical of PLP Dr. Minnis. The country is tanking and he talks of Carnival and Junkanoo

Like the PLP, that he is exactly like, he has no idea of how to fix the Country's economy.

It is time for us to collect the outstanding real property tax from those who have not paid for years, if ever.

It is time for us to shut down Bahamasair.

It is time for us to collect All our customs duties but to do so they will have to fire a number of corrupt Customs Officers.

And the list goes on.

On the contrary, Minnis has yet to take a stand for Bahamians in the HOA.

Nothing on what is missing in the FOIA.

Nothing on the NHI which he, as a doctor has to fully understand tat we can't afford it but has never said so or why.

Minnis has proven that he is useless.
