I mean its simple unless this country becomes energy secure via hybrid means (renewables+Gas) and food secure(as much as possible) we will continue to rack up the bill.
Or we could implement a corporate tax(for the richest companies), an environmental tax(for the cruise ships mainly and anyone destroying our country) and use this money do actually build good public services.
Unless they start rounding up dogs without a collar/license idk. The government always says do this and we gon do that and never have a plan how it will be done.
Let me ask you who is gonna agree to run BPL with out a profit margin? No One! Privatizing BPL anymore will just raise prices on Bahamians for company profits. This crises came from years of not maintaining equipment, over reliance on expensive fossil fuels, and reluctance to adopt or encourage any form of green energy.
So you don't want the wealthy to pay no taxes. Let me guess you gone pave ya own road, hire the fire service to save ya house, and home school the kids.
You just need a online database with up to date property records you don't need to man each island with taxmen. So when its tax day you'll have a record of the properties that paid and didn't pay.
The Bahamas should lower its consumption of gas via good Public transport, Renewable energy, and Hybrid vehicles. Paying for fossil fuel we don't have and relying on it makes us indebted and a beggar essentially.
