Truth be told, Simple Simon has outrightly told so many untruths to the press and public over the years that he fully deserves to be called out for what he truly is, i.e., nothing but a liar, and an ill-tempered one at that!

As a government official the bar is naturally higher for Simple Simon to behave with decorum and not lowly stoop to threatening or intimidating any member of the public, including any member of the free press who happens to be understandably frustrated by the countless well-documented instances in which Simple Simon has been caught telling bald-faced lies.

If Davis had a "real pair" as opposed to a "rat-sized pair" he would have long ago told thin-skinned Simple Simon to submit his resignation letter or, better still, sign up for a tour of duty in Haiti where he could unleash his pent-up violence in combatting violent gang members.

And The Tribune should be writing an official letter to the Office of The Prime Minister complaining of Simple Simon's unwarranted threatening behaviour towards one of its reporters and citing specific examples of the numerous occasions on which Simple Simon has outrightly lied to the free press and the public it represents.

Perhaps he enlisted in Kenyan President Ruto's militia assigned and sponsored by the US government to restore order in Haiti. If so, we don't have to worry about him coming back to our country.

Justice served in the case of Salame.

And until the US government, through its Department of Justice (including FBI) and Department of State (including CIA), is made by the US people to demonstrate its willingness to help assist us free ourselves from the chains of the most corrupt criminals within the political ruling hierarchy of the Bahamas, the Bahamian people should think twice about regarding the people of the US to be their true friends.

All of a sudden our government and so many others like Slo Mo Alfred Sears, Pompous Brian Moree, Know-it-All Michael Paton, Overly Erudite John Delaney have stopped saying we must just jump higher and farther to get off of whatever new and more onerous blacklist the OECD et al. decided to put us on for the benefit of their own nations and at great cost to our financial services sector.

For the longest while, dating back to the early 1990s, we had to listen to these supposedly highly educated Bahamian twits tell us that we had no option but to surrender our sovereignty and common sense to even the most ridiculous demands of the self-anointed bureaucratic global financial regulators. Stumpy Davis and our Dumbo AG are still willing to bow to the more ridiculous demands made by the alphabet soup agencies whenever they believe doing so is necessary to prevent the foreign puppet masters of the PLP government revealing all they know about the corrupt shenanigans of certain members of the PLP hierarchy.

At a time when our nation and its people needed leaders, we got instead a bunch of politicians and lawyers with little business sense and zero common sense who were only too willing to allow Bahamians to be treated like terrorists in their own country whenever they walked into a domestic bank or other financial institution.

BOB, like all the other SOEs, has more than twice the number of employees that it needs with over half of its work force being useless and on the payroll because of who they know rather than what they know. And it is always the useless half who interfere with the ability of the other half to do their job efficiently and effectively for customers.

**Feast on this @birdiestrachan a/k/a the ChiCom controlled robot:**

*We need many more Bahamian engineers and much fewer Bahamian lawyers, especially the kind of lawyers who have little business sense and decide to become politicians make their nests. The elderly among us remember when BEC and batelco were efficiently run, profitable, and customer focused enterprises that were the envy of our region.. Back then these enterprises employed many well educated and trained Bahamians with pride in their work ethic and ability to serve the people.*

*Unfortunately all of that went out the door when SLOP and the PLP hierarchy decided dumbing down successive generations of Bahamians was their only way to preserve political power. Upon obtaining majority rule, SLOP and the PLP hierarchy wasted no time in starving our public education system of the funds and foreign teachers it needed to ensure new Bahamian engineers and other skilled Bahamian workers would eventually exist to replace those who retired.*

*Today we sorely lack well educated and trained Bahamians in many diverse technical fields because so few are willing to accept the type of government interference that goes on at SOEs by clueless lawyers who decided to become politicians to feather their own nests. The fraternity of corrupt politicians is also responsible for the harmful brain drain our country has been experiencing for decades.*

*Too many young Bahamians get an excellent education abroad in the STEM subjects and then decide to live abroad because they simply do not want their careers in their chosen fields interfered with or ended abruptly by corrupt politicians who are clueless about what's best for our nation and seem hell-bent in destroying it for their own personal gain and political survival at any cost.*

*Until we get the crooks out of politics, they and their cronies, both foreign and local, will feast on the PPP model of feeding our SOEs to the local and foreign business vultures who will pry every copper they can from the pockets of Bahamians. Affordable electricity, potable water, communication, etc. are vital to our people, our country's overall productivity, and our national security interests. These types of products and services should not be in the hands of profit hungry people in the private sector who will defeat whatever regulations are put in place to protect the Bahamian public.*

> Senior Carnival Cruise Line executives yesterday said they have been “blown away” by the interest Bahamian bidders have shown in the retail and dining concessions at its new Grand Bahama port.

The successful "bidders" were long ago identified and selected as part of Carnival's big bribe package to get what it wanted from government.

Cash and cheques were intended to put you in complete control of your wealth. Digital payment systems are intended to put the government and the financial institutions licensed by the government in control of your wealth. And it's poorer Bahamians who stand to lose the most from these changes.
