In most cities and countries industries, like factories and refineries are taxed based on the amount of pollution, including noise, they create. That way as a trade off the countries or cities can at least have money to build schools, hospitals and streets. So why are the retards in this country still in the habit of giving things away to foreigners? And since these clowns have to go to the public to raise funds, Minnis could at least require 1/2 to one Billion be put on the local mark to share between private shareholders and the government. But doubtful now that anyone would touch it knowing the nature of these people, Minnis must now get the country’s fair share of taxes.
' The Bible only mentions the deaths of two apostles, James who was put to death by Herod Agrippa I in 44 AD and Judas Iscariot who committed suicide shortly after the death of Christ. The details of the deaths of three of the apostles (John, the Beloved, Bartholomew and Simon the Canaanite) are not known at all, either by tradition or early historians.

Setting one's self on fire is one of the worst and most painful things a human can do, especially when death is the intended result and it doesn't happen. As the body attempts to heal itself,the scaring and the grafting and the physical therapy to keep joints moving and skin from fusing together is beyond painful. And even though the patient is put into an induce coma to avoid pain, he will eventually be brought out of it and given strong pain killers that are very addictive and may include morphine. unfortunately with burn victims, it is usually when it appears that they will recover is when the body shuts own and they expire. And even if you survive, the person rejected you when you were whole and not scarred. now after what you have one to yourself, what are the chances now of making back up with her or even finding another woman.
Again the question is asked ‘ Where is the benefit in this deal to the Bahamian people?’ Six hundred jobs and a $100.000 for all the safety risks, definite pollution to air, land and sea, and the potential health hazard to residents as was the case when BORCO refined oil on the island. Not even a case of 25 cents on each barrel or oil refined and exported. Minnis fell down big time on this one. And with the nature of the people involved, this has the potential to be far worse than the Bah Mar debacle. Why did Minnis rush to sign. These clowns waited 25 years. Would a few more days matter?
So how come when BoB reported profits of 1.4 million persons called or an investigation. But now RBC-FinCo is reporting that their 2017 profits doubled the profits for 2016, everyone remains silent. Hypocrites...
When the Auditor General revealed there was massive mismanagement, AKA t'iefin, at RTD it was totally denied. When you have people on the streets with driver's licences who can't even speak a work of English, something has to be wrong. And they ain't just Haitian nationals.

At this point Minnis would be wise to force these crooked clowns to 'put up or shut up.' Put pressure on them to prove they are financially capable of funding the project and terminate the contract if they can not show they have the means. With the signed documents in hand, these clowns can raise tonnes and tonnes of money without ever putting a shovel in the ground or refining an ounce of oil and only the Bahamas will have its reputation tarnished.
While is is not unusual for legal cases to go to both mediation an arbitration in the US, it is unusual for the defendants to request such action. This is especially strange coming from CCA since Sarkis has been virtually begging and pleading with them, and China ExIm Bank, by extension, to re-negotiate with him, even up to the time the Bah Mar property was set to open. He even, at one point, offered to buy back the Bah Mar property at a premium. And while Izmirilian's case my be both intense and extensive, he may only need prove on enough points to show that it was the actions of CCA, and by extension, China ExIm Bank that cost him to lose the Bah Mar property. CCA's request for Arbitration and Mediation may be either an attempt to stall litigation, or a discovery mechanism to see how hungry Izmirilian is and to see what it will take to cause this lawsuit to go away..
