The really big tax cheats are the cruise ship owners and operators.

He is certifiably demented with zero ability to control his raging anger that gets directed at anyone who dares to question his questionable actions.

> She said officials had discussed the matter with a senior economics wage specialist at the International Labour Organisation.

The "officials" should have had a town hall meeting with a large and diverse group of representatives of the local business community. At such a meeting they would have been told over and over again that ever increasing government taxes and fees, combined with excessive and overly burdensome government regulations, are major contributing factors to the cost of living crisis being experienced by so many Bahamians.

At the town hall meeting, these same officials would have been reminded that the greedy cruise ship industry continues to contribute very little if anything to our domestic economy. They also would have learned that this PLP government has failed to introduce any meaningful policies aimed at creating decent paying jobs to help drive down the very high unemployment rate, especially among young people.

And rather than officials meeting with a presumably foreign senior economics wage specialist, Pia and her fellow cabinet members should be meeting with a couple of Bahamian senior economics cost-cutting specialists!

The 'modern life' greedy lawyers are a big part of the divorce costs and traumas you speak of. Our society has way too many greedy lawyers and nowhere near enough qualified marital counsellors. And as many of us well know, the clergy in our country are often not the best counsellors when it comes to marital issues.

This guy Bowe would have been wise to keep his conflicted trap shut. Those of us with a modicum of common sense know precisely why governments, central banks, and financial institutions around the world are all calling for cashless societies where they can fully control our access to our own funds while charging us exorbitant taxes and fees for every deposit and withdrawal transaction.

Can you just imagine having no cash on hand in the aftermath of a major hurricane where the electricity maybe off and the banks closed for many days! Bowe must think we are all fools!

Applies to Stamp Act and so many other statutes.

What does Davis care? Water for the people is just not a priority.

He's an ugly dumb crooked SOB........the very kind of person corrupt stumpy Davis values most.

The smell is so noxiously bad that some of the dead are thinking about waking up and walking out of there too!

> “Divorces are a breakdown of a marriage,” she said. “Both parties contribute to the breakdown in some sort of way, so the move to no-fault divorces takes that angst and contention out.

This nepotism baby seems oblivious to the fact that dire financial stress is a leading cause of irretrievably broken marriages. Does she even appreciate that Bahamian men are out numbered by Bahamian women and have fewer well paying job opportunities than ever before? I suspect not.

Clearly this silver spooned baby attaches no significance to the fact that most office environments, in both the public and private sectors alike, are dominated by women today. Nor does she appreciate that trends in technology have also eliminated many of the decent paying jobs of the past that required testosterone driven physical labour.

The traditional marriage vows of "for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health" recognize married life has its ups and downs and represent a promise to stay faithful and committed absent repeated instances of physical abuse and other unacceptable forms of cruelty.

This rather immature senator fails to appreciate that making a divorce as easy as a husband or wife signing a short legal document belittles the sanctity of the institution of marriage with undesirable consequences for the overall well-being of a society. She would better devote her time as a senator to things that would help strengthen rather than weaken the institution of marriage, with poverty for way too many families today being at the top of the list.
