@Bonefish. If we had real local government and we (Abaco) were allowed to keep a fixed percentage of the taxes we produce, we would have money for Hole in the Wall. As it is we send all of our money to Nassau then hold our hands out for the pittance they give us. It’s not democracy it’s a form of colonial communism where all the money Abaconians work for is distributed to others. It’s not going to change.

Another big issue is central government. Local government is an illusion. We have zero control over our own affairs. Colonial rule 2.0. As an Abaconian, I’ve been on the wrong end of the stick ever since 1973 when the Marsh Harbour boys tried to blow LOP up with a tub full of dynamite.

The reason the fishing industry isn’t better regulated is because the government doesn’t give a sheet. About anything. Except pillaging the public purse, flashy international travel and bros before ho’s Fifty years of failure.

The government will never get serious enough to take steps like the elimination of exporting conch. I’m sorry my grandkids are going to hear tales as opposed to actually eating conch. Thanks Majority Rule folks; you’ve done a bang up job for 50 years.

Always makes me laugh when pit bull owners say “not my pit bull”. Lol. When was the last time you heard of someone being attack by four pot cakes.

The neglect began in 1973 with “Bahamianization”. Brainchild of LOP. 50 years of neglect will lead to a D- average

A legal cannabis industry, that includes recreational, will create more jobs more quickly than anything else the government can do right now. The FNM missed the boat big time on this cus Dey is dumb. The opportunity for spin off businesses will be as big as farming and dispensaries. Please get this done and for Pete’s sake ignore the Christian council.

Tribune, why y’all disable comments on the marijuana article? I have one simple request, please don’t ever stop referring to it as “Indian hemp” I so love the feeling of 1800’s colonialism it gives me
