Amen!

Birdie....you need to engage your brain before you type. "Justice equals Truth" Money can never buy justice it can only buy injustice. The Appeal Court justices in their wisdom decreed that Magistrate Rolle erred in law, totally messed up proceedings and declared that Wrinlke had no case to answer. End of.

Bahamians need to look at themselves in the mirror. 40 years of independence and all we have is a populace of racist, greedy, dishonest individuals many of whom are on their own personal power trips. This case stunk from high heaven and thank goodness the Appeal Court justices were wise and experienced enough to see that this was a complete stich up. The whole incident was an embarrassment to The Bahamas.

Having visited Cuba several times, I can predict that it will wipe the floor with Bahamas once it gets the green light for capital injection from the States. It truly is a beautiful country with people who understand what it means to serve and be grateful. I fear it is already too late for The Bahamas. We should have been investing hugely in our Family Islands and eco tourism. That is where we could have competed. Unfortunately our politicians had no vision or understanding. Such a shame.

Unless the event drew a substantial amount of tourists (and thereby foreign currency) then it was really not a success. The fact that thousands of Bahamians turned out for a party doesn't mean that we created wealth. All that happened was that money went to carnival vendors instead of other retailers. So did we get value for the money spent on putting on the event? And don't say "Yes", because everyone had a good time. We all paid for it!

Six armed robberies in a little place like this! Welcome to the jungle!

Every man and woman with a grain of common sense KNOWS that this government cannot implement a full NHI scheme come 1st January 2016. That of course includes the sitting cabinet and so the question arises: why are they continuing to spout this nonsense? The answer is clear - they are playing to the masses who they think will vote for them in 2017. It would be a total waste of money to implement a comprehensive NHI scheme before PMH and clinics across the Bahamas are ready to absorb the flood of patients that would surely descend upon them the first day the scheme came into force. But this party is desperate to cling to power and if it thinks forcing this scheme through against the will of the working people will win it enough votes to be re-elected then it will do so. There will be no consideration about what is best for the country, that will not enter their thinking at all. Minnis is right. All right thinking Bahamians want to see better health care for all. The current situation is not acceptable. However, we are talking here about a MAJOR scheme that would revolutionise Health care in The Bahamas. It would be absolute folly for this administration or any other administration to force the scheme through without first ensuring the infrastructure (in the main PMH) is in place and ready to deal with the demand surge. It would also be folly to insist that everyone has to participate when the focus should be on those who don't have medical insurance. That being said don't bet on this administration using common sense. We are dealing with a PM who is more concerned with his legacy than doing what is right for the country and a Party that cares only for its family and friends. The only hope for all of us is that enough people who were duped into voting PLP three years ago come to their senses in May 2017 and punish the Party for its deceitfulness and downright incompetence. There you have it!
