there continues to be corruption on a massive scale, it will not get better any time soon. When you can get you business license under the table from ya Granny Auntie Nephew you can expect to run your business with no oversight or accountability. I have owned and managed multiple Bahamian businesses, I know first hand.
Day after day I shake my head over what these fools say. "It's their fault" seems to the only concept they have of responsibility. I'm honestly surprised the country is still doing as "well" as it is. More inept than Trump, just less childish.
Regardless of nation or nationality, the ''small guy'' will never have a piece of a multi million dollar game. There are some Bahamians who have the money to invest and they should be given a shot at it. However, the ''small guy'' will never have a slice of the pie. Best you can do is grown your own at home and not have to pay for it; you can grow pounds for pennies, trust me on that.
If Brent were just interested in making money, he wouldn't be wasting his time with a government position. He is an MP because he cares about the country and we should be grateful that he has the dedication and resources to bring The Bahamas to a higher standard of living. Instead too many of us are cutting off our nose to spite our face. #sad
Equal rights for women. Freedom of information act. Full transparency in government. Spend tax dollars in the district they were produced in. No new cruise ports. Better environmental laws with enforcement. invest in schools and change the curriculum to reflect todays needs. Stop taking conch for 5 - 10 years. legalize marijuana. Go solar. Privatize all governemnt corporations. Unite entire government on one online data base web site. Lower cost of living. Educate the population on proper eating habits. Listen to the Christian Council less. There's more, but I don't see any of that happening, so I'll stop there.
