As the years go by I am becoming more and more concerned about this place I call my home. This country recently celebrated its 41st Independence and we still find ourselves in these avoidable situations. Any government that truly cares for it's people would make sure that the elderly is looked after, that young people receive proper education and everyone has access to some form of healthcare.
Whenever I have some relative who is bed ridden at PMH it takes me awhile to build up my courage to visit this dump. It is pathetic! What really hit home for me was when I went to see my sick mother who was admitted to the EMR. She was stretch out on one of those gurneys, while waiting for a bed. My god, it was the worst day of my life! Lucky for us my family is vigilant when it comes to our mother's health and we had to step in and resolve the problem immediately. But I can imagine families who have to go through the agony of seeing their love ones live in such slop and dying without any dignity. It is unacceptable. And yes SP, a large percentage of illegals are dominating the space. I couldn't believe it when I went there. I thought I was in little Haiti. The same thing can be seen in schools. But let's not blame the Haitians for our problems. They come here because both the FNM and PLP continue to play the vote for me for citizenship game. By extension we keep putting these two parties back in power. TO compound this, Bahamians are the biggest hypocrites themselves. We are the ones who continue to hire illegals or have them live on our properties for a few measly dollars.
The sad thing about this is that Bahamians don't even seem to respect their own flag. If you drive around you could see the flag all dirty and raggy hanging from some a dese houses. These people obviously don't have a clue about the proper procedures for handling the flag. The Bahamian flag should be raised between the times when the sun rises and sets. There has to be proper lighting if it is to be flown at night
Well this is where you should have done something. Trust me if I had seen this display of disregard and disrespect for the Bahamas there would have an accident right there and then!
"trying to get your bills up to date, including myself, the chairman" If someone is trying to get his or her bill up to date then it is obviously in arrears general.
This is utter bullshit! Every Haitian descendent I know who has been given a Bahamian passport is pro Haitian and they see Bahamians as the enemy. Shit... on Haitian flag day they parade around town showing off the Haitian flag with pride. You never see these people doing the same during the Bahamas Independence. This is just facts. These people could give a shit about the Bahamas. I also know a lot of them who received passports under the former administration for promised votes. This crew laughs at the stupidly of our government. I am sorry but no man can serve two masters. Don't come in this country and use us to get to get a certain status then dump us when you can travel to USA. If this country was poor and destitute like Haiti we wouldn't even be having this argument cause no Haitians would even be here.
